Net High Stakes Poker- Gus Hansen

Gus Hansen enjoyed a marvelous year on the WPT where he was the only one to make it to the last game in 3 of the tournaments. Gus Hansen has appeared on High Stakes Poker on GSN where he paid $400, 000 to play. You might remember one of the biggest pots in high stakes poker history against Daniel Negreanu. He won a massive pot with 4 of a kind against Negreanu’s full house. Hansen has earned many tv poker appearances and is thought to be one of the best bettors in the world. While competing in online poker, another side of Hansen has emerged. He often competes in the 200/400 No Limit max buy in of $40, 000. Hansen generally buys in for the min of $16, 000 and gambles very poorly. He waits for a decent hand and then goes all in. I accept that Hansen is an amazing poker player but certainly not even close to the everyday players at 200/400NL. Unless he is penniless, he has absolutely no reason to settle at the game with the min buy-in.

Buying in for the min takes most of the skill out of deep stack poker. Hansen is presumed to be one of the best poker players in the world but he cannot buy-in for the total amt.. I believe tv can alter our view of the real world every now and then. The greatest poker players anywhere in the world might just be guys you have will not have heard of before. Gus can be found wagering on online poker on Full Tilt. He generally competes in big stakes omaha hi-low and Holdem. Gus has proven himself as a tournament player. Can he use his talents in cash rounds?
