Gus Hansen had a marvelous year on the World Poker Tour where he was the only participant to achieve last game in 3 of the tournaments. Gus Hansen has been seen on High Stakes Poker on The Game Show Network where he paid $400, 000 to play. You may remember one of the largest pots in high stakes poker history against Daniel Negreanu. Gus raked in a massive pot with 4 of a kind against Daniel’s full house. Gus has made many televised poker appearances and is considered to be one of the greatest gamblers in the world. While competing in web poker, a different side of Hansen has appeared. Gus frequently competes in the 200/400 NL max buy-in of Forty Thousand dollars. Hansen frequently buys in for the minimum of Sixteen Thousand dollars and plays very poorly. He sits there waiting for a decent hand and then goes all-in. I know Gus is an amazing poker player but not even close to the regular players at 200/400no limit. Unless he is broke, he has no reason to sit at the game with the min buy-in.
Playing for the min takes almost all of the expertise out of big stack poker. Hansen is assumed to be one of the greatest poker players in the world but he can’t buy-in for the total dollar value. I believe tv can alter our perception of the real world every now and then. The greatest poker players anywhere in the world could be guys you have never heard of before. Gus can be found wagering on web poker on Full Tilt. He usually plays in high stakes omaha hi-low and Holdem. Gus has proven himself as a competition player. Can he back up his talents in cash rounds?
