Gus Hansen enjoyed a marvelous year on the World Poker Tour where he was the only gambler to achieve closing poker table in 3 of the tournaments. Gus Hansen has appeared on High Stakes Poker on GSN where he paid $400, 000 to play. You might recall one of the largest pots in high stakes poker history competing against Daniel Negreanu. He raked in a huge pot with quads against Daniel’s full house. Gus has earned many tv poker appearances and is deemed to be one of the strongest enthusiasts in the world. While participating in net poker, a different side of Hansen has been seen. He frequently competes in the 200/400 No Limit maximum buy in of $40, 000. Hansen usually buys in for the minimum of Sixteen Thousand dollars and gambles very poorly. He sits there waiting for a good hand and then goes all-in. I know Gus is a great poker player but certainly not even close to the familiar players at 200/400NL. Unless he is bankrupt, he has little or no reason to sit at the game with the min buy-in.

Buying in for the min takes almost all of the expertise out of deep stack poker. Gus is supposed to be one of the best poker players in the world but he cannot buy in for the total dollar value. I think tv can skew our view of the real world every now and then. The best players anywhere in the world might be players you have will not have heard about. Gus can be found participating in net poker on Full Tilt. He generally plays in big stakes omaha high and hold’em. Gus Hansen has shown himself as a competition player. Can he use his skills in money games?
