Gus Hansen had an amazing year on the World Poker Tour where he was the only gambler to achieve closing game in three of the tournaments. Gus Hansen has been seen on High Stakes Poker on The Game Show Network where he bought into the game for $400, 000. You might recall one of the biggest pots in high stakes poker recorded history up against Daniel Negreanu. Hansen won a massive pot with quads against Daniel's full house. Hansen has made many tv poker appearances and is considered to be one of the strongest bettors around the world. While gambling on internet poker, another side of Hansen has emerged. Gus frequently competes in the 200/400 No Limit max buy-in of $40, 000. Hansen more often than not buys in for the minimum of $16, 000 and plays very poorly.

Gus can be found betting on internet poker on Full Tilt. He commonly participates in big stakes Omaha and texas hold'em. Gus Hansen has shown himself as a tournament player.
