Gus Hansen had a wonderful year on the WPT where he was the only gambler to make it to the final poker table in three of the tournaments. Gus Hansen has appeared on High Stakes Poker on GSN where he paid $400, 000 to play. You may remember one of the largest pots in big stakes poker history up against Daniel Negreanu. Gus won a big pot with quads against Daniel’s full house. Hansen has earned many tv poker appearances and is considered to be one of the best bettors anywhere in the world. While gambling on web poker, another side of Hansen has been seen. He regularly plays in the 200/400 NL max buy in of $40, 000. Gus more often than not buys-in for the min of Sixteen Thousand dollars and plays very weak. He sits there waiting for a decent hand and then goes all in. I accept that Hansen is an excellent poker player but not even close to the regular players at 200/400no limit. Unless he is bankrupt, he has little or no reason to settle at the table with the min buy-in.

Playing for the min takes most of the expertise out of deep stack poker. Hansen is accepted to be 1 of the greatest players in the world but he can’t buy-in for the total amount. I believe tv can alter our view of the real world at times. The greatest poker players anywhere in the world could be guys you have won’t have heard about. Gus can be found participating in net poker on Full Tilt. He commonly competes in big stakes omaha hi-low and hold’em. Gus Hansen has proven himself as a competition player. Can he back up his abilities in cash rounds?
