Gus Hansen experienced a wonderful year on the WPT where he was the only gambler to make it to the closing 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 remember one of the biggest pots in high stakes poker recorded history competing against Daniel Negreanu. Hansen secured a huge pot with 4 of a kind against Negreanu's full house. Hansen has made many televised poker appearances and is considered to be one of the best enthusiasts anywhere in the world. While wagering on online poker, a different side of Hansen has emerged. Gus frequently participates in the 200/400 No Limit maximum buy in of $40, 000. Hansen generally buys-in for the min of $16, 000 and gambles very weak. He sits there waiting for a good hand and then pushes all in. I accept that Gus is an excellent poker player but certainly not even close to the everyday players at 200/400no limit. Unless he is broke, he has absolutely no reason to settle at the game with the min buy-in.

Buying in for the min takes a majority of the ability out of deep stack poker. Gus is assumed to be 1 of the greatest poker players anywhere in the world but he cannot buy in for the full dollar value. I think television can alter our perception of the real world at times. The best poker players in the world might be guys you have won't have heard about. Gus can be seen playing online poker on Full Tilt. He usually plays in high stakes omaha hold'em and hold'em. Gus Hansen has shown himself as a tournament player. Can he back up his abilities in money games?
