Online High Stakes Poker- Who is Gus Hansen?
Gus Hansen experienced a wonderful year on the WPT where he was the only participant to achieve last game in 3 of the events. Gus Hansen has appeared on High Stakes Poker on The Game Show Network where he paid $400, 000 to play. You may remember one of the biggest 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 televised poker appearances and is deemed to be one of the greatest enthusiasts anywhere in the world. While participating in net poker, a different side of Hansen has emerged. He frequently participates in the 200/400 NL maximum buy-in of Forty Thousand dollars. Hansen generally buys-in for the min of $16, 000 and gambles very weak. He waits for a decent hand and then goes all in. I know Gus is an excellent poker player but not even close to the everyday players at 200/400no limit. Unless Gus is flat broke, he has no reason to play at the game with the minimum buy-in.
Playing for the min takes a majority of the skill out of big stack poker. Gus is accepted to be one of the greatest players anywhere in the world but he can’t buy in for the total amt.. I think television can alter our perception of the real world at times. The best players anywhere in the world may be players you have never heard about. Gus can be found wagering on online poker on Full Tilt. He commonly competes in high stakes omaha hi-low and texas holdem. Gus has proven himself as a competition player. Can he use his skills in money rounds?
