Web High Stakes Poker- Gus Hansen
Gus Hansen experienced a marvelous year on the World Poker Tour where he was the only player to make it to the final poker table in 3 of the tournaments. Gus Hansen has been seen on High Stakes Poker on The Game Show Network where he bought into the game for $400, 000. You may remember one of the largest pots in big stakes poker recorded history up against Daniel Negreanu. Hansen secured a large pot with quads against Negreanu’s full house. Hansen has earned many tv poker appearances and is thought to be one of the best gamblers around the world. While wagering on online poker, a different side of Hansen has appeared. He frequently plays in the 200/400 NL max buy in of Forty Thousand dollars. Hansen 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 Hansen is an excellent poker player but not even close to the regular players at 200/400no limit. Unless Gus is broke, he has absolutely no reason to settle at the table with the minimum buy-in.
Playing for the min takes a majority of the ability out of deep stack poker. Hansen is accepted to be 1 of the greatest players in the world but he cannot buy-in for the total amt.. I believe television can alter our view of the real world at times. The greatest players anywhere in the world might just be players you have never heard about. Gus can be seen participating in internet poker on Full Tilt. He normally plays in big stakes omaha high and Holdem. Gus Hansen has proven himself as a tournament player. Can he back up his abilities in cash rounds?
