Net High Stakes Poker- Gus Hansen
Gus Hansen experienced a marvelous year on the World Poker Tour where he was the only participant to achieve final table in three of the tournaments. Gus Hansen has been seen on High Stakes Poker on GSN where he bought into the game for $400, 000. You may remember one of the largest pots in big stakes poker recorded history competing against Daniel Negreanu. Gus raked in a massive pot with 4 of a kind against Negreanu’s full house. Gus has earned many televised poker appearances and is considered to be one of the best bettors anywhere in the world. While playing web poker, a different side of Hansen has been seen. Gus often competes in the 200/400 NL maximum buy in of Forty Thousand dollars. Gus generally buys in for the minimum of Sixteen Thousand dollars and gambles very poorly. He waits for a good hand and then goes all-in. I know Hansen is an outstanding poker player but certainly not even close to the everyday players at 200/400NL. Unless he is flat broke, he has absolutely no reason to settle at the table with the minimum buy in.
Buying in for the min takes most of the ability out of big stack poker. Hansen is supposed to be one of the best poker players in the world but he can’t buy-in for the full amt.. I think tv can alter our perception of the real world sometimes. The best poker players in the world might be guys you have never heard about. Gus can be found competing in net poker on Full Tilt. He usually participates in high stakes omaha high and Holdem. Gus Hansen has proven himself as a tournament player. Can he back up his skills in cash games?
