Web Big Stakes Poker- Gus Hansen
Posted in Poker on 07/09/2018 10:25 am by LillyGus Hansen had a marvelous year on the WPT where he was the only one to make it to the final 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 big stakes poker recorded history competing against Daniel Negreanu. Gus won a large pot with 4 of a kind against Daniel’s full house. Gus has earned many tv poker appearances and is deemed to be one of the greatest enthusiasts in the world. While gambling on internet poker, a different side of Hansen has been seen. Gus often competes 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 patiently for a good hand and then goes all in. I believe Hansen is an amazing poker player but not even close to the familiar players at 200/400no limit. Unless he is broke, he has no reason to settle at the game with the min buy in.
Buying in for the min takes most of the skill out of big stack poker. Gus is supposed to be one of the greatest players in the world but he can’t buy-in for the full amount. I think tv can alter our view of the real world sometimes. The best poker players in the world may be guys you have will not have heard of. Gus can be seen gambling on internet poker on Full Tilt. He generally participates in big stakes omaha hold’em and texas hold’em. Gus Hansen has shown himself as a tournament player. Can he back up his abilities in money games?
