Gus Hansen enjoyed an amazing year on the WPT where he was the only gambler to make it to the last game in 3 of the events. Gus Hansen has been seen 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 against Daniel Negreanu. Hansen secured a big pot with 4 of a kind against Negreanu’s full house. Hansen has earned many tv poker appearances and is deemed to be one of the strongest bettors around the world. While wagering on web poker, a different side of Hansen has emerged. He frequently participates in the 200/400 No Limit maximum buy-in of $40, 000. Gus generally buys-in for the min of $16, 000 and plays very weak. He waits patiently for a decent hand and then pushes all in. I believe Hansen is an outstanding poker player but certainly not even close to the familiar players at 200/400no limit. Unless Gus is penniless, he has little or no reason to play at the table with the minimum buy in.
Playing for the min takes almost all of the ability out of deep stack poker. Hansen is assumed to be one of the best players in the world but he can’t buy in for the total amt.. I believe tv can skew our perception of the real world every now and then. The greatest players in the world could be players you have won’t have heard of before. Gus can be found wagering on web poker on Full Tilt. He normally plays in big stakes omaha eight-or-better and Holdem. Gus Hansen has proven himself as a tournament player. Can he use his talents in money rounds?
