Gus Hansen had a marvelous year on the World Poker Tour where he was the only gambler to achieve closing table in three of the competitions. Gus Hansen has been seen on High Stakes Poker on GSN where he paid $400, 000 to play. You may remember one of the biggest pots in high stakes poker history up against Daniel Negreanu. Gus secured a large 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 strongest enthusiasts anywhere in the world. While wagering on internet poker, another side of Hansen has been seen. He often participates in the 200/400 No Limit maximum buy in of $40, 000. Gus usually buys-in for the min of $16, 000 and gambles very poorly. He waits patiently for a decent hand and then pushes all in. I accept that Hansen is an amazing poker player but certainly not even close to the familiar players at 200/400NL. Unless Gus is penniless, he has absolutely no reason to settle at the table with the minimum buy-in.
Buying in for the min takes most of the expertise out of big stack poker. Gus is accepted to be 1 of the best players anywhere in the world but he cannot buy in for the full amount. I think television can alter our view of the real world at times. The greatest players in the world could be players you have never heard about. Gus can be found betting on online poker on Full Tilt. He commonly participates in big stakes omaha hi-low and texas holdem. Gus Hansen has shown himself as a competition player. Can he use his talents in cash games?
