Gus Hansen experienced an amazing year on the WPT where he was the only player to make it to the last poker table in three of the competitions. Gus Hansen has been seen on High Stakes Poker on The Game Show Network where he paid $400, 000 to play. You might remember one of the biggest pots in big stakes poker history competing against Daniel Negreanu. Hansen secured a massive pot with 4 of a kind against Daniel's full house. Gus has earned many televised poker appearances and is deemed to be one of the greatest enthusiasts around the world. While participating in online poker, a different side of Hansen has appeared. He often plays in the 200/400 NL max buy-in of $40, 000. Hansen usually buys in for the minimum of Sixteen Thousand dollars and plays very weak. He waits for a good hand and then goes all-in. I know Hansen is an amazing poker player but not even close to the familiar players at 200/400no limit. Unless he is bankrupt, he has no reason to sit at the game with the min buy in.

Playing for the minimum takes almost all of the ability out of big stack poker. Gus is supposed to be one of the best players in the world but he can't buy in for the full amount. I believe tv can skew our perception of the real world every now and then. The greatest poker players anywhere in the world might be players you have will not have heard about. Gus can be seen wagering on internet poker on Full Tilt. He usually plays in big stakes omaha/8 and texas hold'em. Gus has proven himself as a tournament player. Can he use his abilities in money games?
