Web Big Stakes Poker- Gus Hansen
Gus Hansen enjoyed a wonderful year on the World Poker Tour where he was the only one to achieve final poker table in 3 of the events. Gus Hansen has been seen 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 recorded history against Daniel Negreanu. Hansen secured a large pot with 4 of a kind against Daniel’s full house. Hansen has made many tv poker appearances and is thought to be one of the best bettors anywhere in the world. While wagering on online poker, another side of Hansen has appeared. He often competes in the 200/400 No Limit maximum buy in of $40, 000. Gus more often than not buys-in for the min of Sixteen Thousand dollars and plays very poorly. He waits for a decent hand and then pushes all in. I accept that Gus is a great poker player but not even close to the familiar players at 200/400NL. Unless Gus is bankrupt, he has little or no reason to play at the game with the min buy in.
Buying in for the min takes most of the skill out of deep stack poker. Gus is presumed to be one of the greatest poker players anywhere in the world but he cannot buy in for the total amt.. I believe television can alter our perception of the real world at times. The greatest poker players in the world might be guys you have never heard of before. Gus can be found betting on online poker on Full Tilt. He commonly competes in big stakes omaha hold’em and texas holdem. Gus Hansen has shown himself as a tournament player. Can he back up his talents in cash games?
