Gus Hansen experienced an amazing year on the WPT where he was the only one to achieve closing table in three of the competitions. Gus Hansen has appeared on High Stakes Poker on The Game Show Network where he paid $400, 000 to play. You may recall one of the largest pots in high stakes poker history competing against Daniel Negreanu. Gus secured a massive pot with quads against Negreanu’s full house. Gus has earned many televised poker appearances and is considered to be one of the best bettors around the world. While gambling on internet poker, a different side of Hansen has appeared. He often participates in the 200/400 NL maximum buy-in of Forty Thousand dollars. Gus generally buys in for the min of Sixteen Thousand dollars and plays very weak. He waits for a good hand and then goes all in. I accept that Gus is an excellent poker player but certainly not even close to the familiar players at 200/400no limit. Unless Gus is bankrupt, he has no reason to settle at the game with the minimum buy in.
Playing for the minimum takes most of the skill out of big stack poker. Hansen is accepted to be 1 of the greatest poker players in the world but he can’t buy in for the total amt.. I believe tv can alter our view of the real world at times. The best players anywhere in the world might just be players you have won’t have heard of before. Gus can be found betting on web poker on Full Tilt. He generally competes in high stakes Omaha and texas hold’em. Gus has shown himself as a tournament player. Can he back up his talents in money games?
