Gus Hansen had an amazing year on the World Poker Tour where he was the only one to achieve final poker table in three of the events. Gus Hansen has been seen on High Stakes Poker on GSN where he bought into the game for $400, 000. You might remember one of the largest pots in big stakes poker history up against Daniel Negreanu. He won a big pot with 4 of a kind against Negreanu’s full house. Gus has earned many televised poker appearances and is considered to be one of the greatest bettors anywhere in the world. While gambling on internet poker, another side of Hansen has been seen. Gus frequently plays in the 200/400 No Limit maximum buy-in of Forty Thousand dollars. Gus usually buys in for the minimum of Sixteen Thousand dollars and gambles very weak. He waits patiently for a good hand and then pushes all-in. I believe Gus is an amazing poker player but not even close to the everyday players at 200/400NL. Unless Gus is flat broke, he has little or no reason to sit at the table with the min buy-in.

Buying in for the minimum takes most of the expertise out of deep stack poker. Gus is presumed to be one of the best poker players in the world but he can’t buy-in for the full amt.. I think television can skew our perception of the real world sometimes. The greatest players in the world might just be players you have will not have heard about. Gus can be found competing in internet poker on Full Tilt. He commonly participates in high stakes omaha hold’em and texas hold’em. Gus has proven himself as a competition player. Can he back up his abilities in cash games?
