Net High Stakes Poker- Gus Hansen
Gus Hansen enjoyed an amazing year on the World Poker Tour where he was the only one to achieve last game in three of the tournaments. Gus Hansen has appeared on High Stakes Poker on The Game Show Network where he paid $400, 000 to play. You might recall one of the largest pots in high stakes poker recorded history up against Daniel Negreanu. He won a large pot with quads against Negreanu’s full house. Gus has earned many tv poker appearances and is considered to be one of the greatest bettors around the world. While playing internet poker, a different side of Hansen has been seen. Gus frequently competes in the 200/400 No Limit maximum buy-in of Forty Thousand dollars. Gus usually buys-in for the minimum of $16, 000 and gambles very weak. He waits patiently for a good hand and then goes all in. I accept that Gus is an amazing poker player but certainly not even close to the regular players at 200/400no limit. Unless Gus is bankrupt, he has absolutely no reason to sit at the game with the minimum buy-in.
Playing for the minimum takes most of the expertise out of big stack poker. Hansen is assumed to be 1 of the best poker players anywhere in the world but he cannot buy in for the total amount. I believe television can alter our view of the real world at times. The best players anywhere in the world may be players you have will not have heard of before. Gus can be found competing in net poker on Full Tilt. He normally competes in high stakes omaha hold’em and Holdem. Gus Hansen has proven himself as a competition player. Can he back up his talents in money rounds?
