Online High Stakes Poker- Gus Hansen
Gus Hansen experienced a wonderful year on the WPT where he was the only gambler to make it to the final game in three 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 recorded history against Daniel Negreanu. Gus secured a large pot with 4 of a kind against Negreanu’s full house. Hansen has made many tv poker appearances and is deemed to be one of the best gamblers in the world. While wagering on net poker, a different side of Hansen has appeared. Gus frequently participates in the 200/400 No Limit max buy-in of $40, 000. Gus more often than not buys in for the minimum of Sixteen Thousand dollars and plays very weak. He waits for a good hand and then goes all-in. I know Hansen is an excellent poker player but not even close to the regular players at 200/400no limit. Unless he is broke, he has absolutely no reason to settle at the table with the minimum buy-in.
Buying in for the min takes almost all of the expertise out of big stack poker. Gus is accepted to be 1 of the best players in the world but he cannot buy in for the total amount. I believe tv can alter our perception of the real world every now and then. The greatest poker players anywhere in the world could be players you have will not have heard of. Gus can be found wagering on net poker on Full Tilt. He generally plays in high stakes omaha hi-low and texas hold’em. Gus Hansen has proven himself as a competition player. Can he back up his talents in money rounds?
