Gus Hansen experienced an amazing year on the World Poker Tour where he was the only participant to achieve last poker table in three of the tournaments. Gus Hansen has appeared 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 history against Daniel Negreanu. Hansen won a big pot with quads against Negreanu’s full house. Hansen has earned many televised poker appearances and is thought to be one of the greatest gamblers in the world. While betting on internet poker, another side of Hansen has appeared. Gus regularly participates in the 200/400 No Limit max buy-in of $40, 000. Gus generally buys-in for the min of Sixteen Thousand dollars and gambles very poorly. He waits patiently for a good hand and then goes all-in. I accept that Hansen is a great poker player but not even close to the familiar players at 200/400no limit. Unless he is bankrupt, he has no reason to play at the table with the min buy-in.

Buying in for the min takes a majority of the skill out of big stack poker. Hansen is presumed to be 1 of the best poker players in the world but he cannot buy-in for the total amount. I think television can alter our view of the real world every now and then. The greatest players in the world might be players you have will not have heard of before. Gus can be found playing net poker on Full Tilt. He usually competes in big stakes Omaha and Holdem. Gus Hansen has proven himself as a competition player. Can he back up his skills in money rounds?
