Gus Hansen enjoyed a marvelous year on the WPT where he was the only player to make it to the final poker table in 3 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 recorded history against Daniel Negreanu. He secured a big pot with quads against Negreanu's full house. Gus has made many televised poker appearances and is deemed to be one of the best enthusiasts anywhere in the world. While wagering on online poker, a different side of Hansen has emerged. He frequently plays in the 200/400 NL maximum buy-in of $40, 000. Gus usually buys-in for the minimum of Sixteen Thousand dollars and gambles very weak. He sits there waiting for a good hand and then goes all in. I believe Hansen is a great poker player but not even close to the familiar players at 200/400NL. Unless he is penniless, he has no reason to play at the game with the min buy-in.

Playing for the min takes most of the ability out of big stack poker. Gus is presumed to be 1 of the greatest poker players in the world but he cannot buy in for the total amt.. I think television can skew our view of the real world sometimes. The best poker players in the world might just be guys you have never heard about. Gus can be found gambling on web poker on Full Tilt. He commonly plays in big stakes omaha/8 and hold'em. Gus has proven himself as a competition player. Can he back up his abilities in money rounds?
