Gus Hansen had an amazing year on the WPT where he was the only player to make it to the closing table in three of the events. Gus Hansen has been seen on High Stakes Poker on GSN where he paid $400, 000 to play. You may recall one of the largest pots in big stakes poker history up against Daniel Negreanu. Gus secured a massive pot with quads against Daniel’s full house. Hansen has made many televised poker appearances and is deemed to be one of the best gamblers around the world. While betting on net poker, a different side of Hansen has emerged. He frequently participates in the 200/400 NL maximum buy-in of $40, 000. Gus generally buys-in for the min of Sixteen Thousand dollars and gambles very poorly. He waits patiently for a decent hand and then pushes all in. I accept that Gus is an amazing poker player but not even close to the regular players at 200/400no limit. Unless he is broke, he has absolutely no reason to settle at the game with the minimum buy in.
Playing for the min takes most of the expertise out of big stack poker. Gus is accepted to be 1 of the best players in the world but he cannot buy-in for the total amt.. I believe tv can skew our perception of the real world sometimes. The best poker players anywhere in the world might be guys you have won’t have heard of. Gus can be found gambling on web poker on Full Tilt. He normally plays in big stakes omaha high and hold’em. Gus has shown himself as a tournament player. Can he use his skills in money games?
