Gus Hansen enjoyed a marvelous year on the World Poker Tour where he was the only gambler to achieve closing table in 3 of the events. Gus Hansen has appeared on High Stakes Poker on GSN where he bought into the game for $400, 000. You may recall one of the largest pots in high stakes poker history against Daniel Negreanu. He raked in a massive pot with 4 of a kind against Daniel's full house. Gus has earned many televised poker appearances and is considered to be one of the best bettors anywhere in the world. While wagering on internet poker, a different side of Hansen has emerged. He often plays in the 200/400 NL maximum buy in of Forty Thousand dollars. Gus more often than not buys in for the min of $16, 000 and gambles very poorly. He waits for a decent hand and then goes all-in. I know Gus is an outstanding poker player but certainly not even close to the familiar players at 200/400NL. Unless he is broke, he has no reason to sit at the table with the min buy in.

Buying in for the minimum takes most of the skill out of deep stack poker. Gus is accepted to be one of the greatest players anywhere in the world but he can't buy-in for the total amount.

Can he back up his skills in money games?
