Gus Hansen experienced a marvelous year on the WPT where he was the only gambler to achieve final table in 3 of the competitions. Gus Hansen has been seen on High Stakes Poker on GSN where he paid $400, 000 to play. You might remember one of the largest pots in big stakes poker recorded history competing against Daniel Negreanu. Hansen won a huge pot with quads against Daniel’s full house. Hansen has made many televised poker appearances and is considered to be one of the strongest players anywhere in the world. While competing in internet poker, a different side of Hansen has appeared. He often plays in the 200/400 No Limit max buy-in of Forty Thousand dollars. Gus usually buys in for the min of $16, 000 and gambles very poorly. He waits for a good hand and then goes all-in. I accept that Hansen is a great poker player but certainly not even close to the regular players at 200/400no limit. Unless Gus is broke, he has no reason to sit at the game with the minimum buy-in.

Buying in for the minimum takes a majority of the expertise out of deep stack poker. Hansen is accepted to be 1 of the greatest players in the world but he cannot buy-in for the full amt.. I think tv can skew our perception of the real world every now and then. The greatest players in the world may be guys you have won’t have heard about. Gus can be found playing web poker on Full Tilt. He normally plays in big stakes omaha/8 and hold’em. Gus Hansen has shown himself as a competition player. Can he use his talents in money rounds?
