Net High Stakes Poker- Gus Hansen
Gus Hansen experienced a wonderful year on the World Poker Tour where he was the only one to make it to the last game in three of the competitions. Gus Hansen has been seen on High Stakes Poker on GSN where he paid $400, 000 to play. You may remember one of the biggest pots in big stakes poker history competing against Daniel Negreanu. He won a big pot with 4 of a kind against Daniel’s full house. Gus has earned many tv poker appearances and is thought to be one of the strongest gamblers in the world. While participating in web poker, a different side of Hansen has been seen. He often participates in the 200/400 NL maximum buy-in of Forty Thousand dollars. Hansen more often than not buys in for the min of $16, 000 and gambles very weak. He waits patiently for a good hand and then pushes all-in. I accept that Hansen is an outstanding poker player but certainly not even close to the regular players at 200/400no limit. Unless Gus is penniless, he has no reason to sit at the table with the min buy-in.
Buying in for the minimum takes most of the ability out of big stack poker. Hansen is accepted to be 1 of the best poker players anywhere in the world but he can’t buy-in for the full amount. I think tv can skew our perception of the real world at times. The greatest poker players in the world may be players you have won’t have heard of. Gus can be found betting on online poker on Full Tilt. He generally plays in big stakes omaha hold’em and hold’em. Gus has shown himself as a tournament player. Can he back up his talents in money games?
