Gus Hansen enjoyed an amazing year on the World Poker Tour where he was the only participant to achieve last table in three of the competitions. Gus Hansen has been seen on High Stakes Poker on The Game Show Network where he bought into the game for $400, 000. You might remember one of the biggest pots in big stakes poker history against Daniel Negreanu. Hansen secured a large pot with 4 of a kind against Daniel's full house. Gus has earned many tv poker appearances and is deemed to be one of the best bettors in the world. While gambling on internet poker, another side of Hansen has been seen. He regularly participates in the 200/400 No Limit max buy in of Forty Thousand dollars. Hansen frequently buys in for the min of Sixteen Thousand dollars and gambles very poorly. He sits there waiting for a good hand and then goes all-in. I believe Hansen is an outstanding poker player but not even close to the familiar players at 200/400NL. Unless Gus is bankrupt, he has no reason to settle at the table with the min buy in.

Buying in for the minimum takes most of the ability out of big stack poker. Gus is accepted to be 1 of the best poker players in the world but he cannot buy in for the total dollar value. I believe tv can skew our perception of the real world at times. The greatest players anywhere in the world might just be guys you have will not have heard about. Gus can be seen competing in web poker on Full Tilt. He normally plays in big stakes Omaha and Holdem. Gus has shown himself as a tournament player. Can he back up his skills in cash rounds?
