Gus Hansen had a marvelous year on the World Poker Tour where he was the only gambler to achieve last table in 3 of the events. Gus Hansen has been seen on High Stakes Poker on GSN where he paid $400, 000 to play. You might recall one of the biggest pots in big stakes poker recorded history up against Daniel Negreanu. Hansen won a huge pot with quads against Daniel’s full house. Gus has made many televised poker appearances and is considered to be one of the greatest players anywhere in the world. While betting on net poker, a different side of Hansen has appeared. He frequently plays in the 200/400 No Limit max buy in of Forty Thousand dollars. Hansen more often than not buys-in for the minimum of $16, 000 and gambles very poorly. He waits patiently for a good hand and then pushes all-in. I accept that Hansen is a great poker player but not even close to the regular players at 200/400no limit. Unless he is penniless, he has absolutely no reason to settle at the game with the minimum buy in.
Buying in for the minimum takes most of the expertise out of deep stack poker. Gus is supposed 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 perception of the real world sometimes. The best players in the world might just be guys you have won’t have heard about. Gus can be seen wagering on online poker on Full Tilt. He generally plays in high stakes omaha hold’em and hold’em. Gus has shown himself as a tournament player. Can he back up his abilities in money games?
