Gus Hansen enjoyed an amazing year on the WPT where he was the only player to make it to the last poker table in three of the events. Gus Hansen has been seen on High Stakes Poker on GSN where he bought into the game for $400, 000. You may recall one of the biggest pots in high stakes poker recorded history against Daniel Negreanu. Gus secured a big pot with 4 of a kind against Daniel’s full house. Hansen has earned many televised poker appearances and is considered to be one of the greatest enthusiasts anywhere in the world. While gambling on internet poker, another side of Hansen has appeared. He frequently plays in the 200/400 No Limit max buy in of $40, 000. Gus frequently buys in for the min of Sixteen Thousand dollars and gambles very poorly. He waits patiently for a decent hand and then goes all-in. I believe Hansen is an amazing poker player but certainly not even close to the familiar players at 200/400no limit. Unless he is flat broke, he has absolutely no reason to sit at the game with the min buy in.

Buying in for the minimum takes a majority of the skill out of deep stack poker. Hansen is assumed to be one of the best players in the world but he can’t buy-in for the total dollar value. I believe television can alter our perception of the real world every now and then. The greatest poker players in the world might be players you have never heard of before. Gus can be found competing in net poker on Full Tilt. He generally participates in big stakes omaha/8 and Holdem. Gus has shown himself as a competition player. Can he back up his abilities in cash rounds?
