Gus Hansen experienced a marvelous year on the World Poker Tour where he was the only player to achieve closing game in three of the tournaments. Gus Hansen has appeared on High Stakes Poker on GSN where he paid $400, 000 to play. You may recall one of the biggest pots in high stakes poker history competing against Daniel Negreanu. He won a big pot with 4 of a kind against Daniel's full house. Hansen has made many tv poker appearances and is deemed to be one of the greatest enthusiasts anywhere in the world. While playing internet poker, a different side of Hansen has emerged. He often plays in the 200/400 No Limit max buy-in of Forty Thousand dollars. Gus generally buys-in for the min of $16, 000 and plays very poorly. He waits patiently for a good hand and then pushes all in. I know Hansen is a great poker player but not even close to the regular players at 200/400no limit. Unless he is bankrupt, he has absolutely no reason to sit at the table with the minimum buy in.

Playing for the minimum takes a majority of the expertise out of big stack poker. Gus is supposed to be 1 of the greatest poker players anywhere in the world but he cannot buy in for the total amt.. I believe television can skew our view of the real world every now and then. The best poker players anywhere in the world might just be players you have never heard of. Gus can be found playing internet poker on Full Tilt. He usually plays in high stakes omaha hold'em and texas hold'em. Gus Hansen has shown himself as a tournament player. Can he back up his abilities in money rounds?
