Online Big Stakes Poker- Gus Hansen
Posted in Poker on 12/12/2024 02:25 pm by MarleyGus Hansen enjoyed an amazing year on the WPT where he was the only gambler to make it to the final game in three of the events. Gus Hansen has been seen on High Stakes Poker on The Game Show Network where he paid $400, 000 to play. You may remember one of the largest pots in big stakes poker recorded history up against Daniel Negreanu. Hansen won a big pot with 4 of a kind against Negreanu’s full house. Hansen has earned many televised poker appearances and is considered to be one of the best players anywhere in the world. While competing in net poker, a different side of Hansen has emerged. Gus frequently plays in the 200/400 No Limit maximum buy in of Forty Thousand dollars. Hansen frequently buys-in for the min of Sixteen Thousand dollars and gambles very weak. He sits there waiting for a decent hand and then goes all in. I believe Hansen is an outstanding poker player but certainly not even close to the everyday players at 200/400no limit. Unless he is flat broke, he has no reason to settle at the table with the minimum buy-in.
Playing for the min takes most of the skill out of big stack poker. Gus is accepted to be one of the greatest players anywhere 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 greatest poker players anywhere in the world could be guys you have won’t have heard about. Gus can be found competing in web poker on Full Tilt. He commonly plays in big stakes omaha hold’em and Holdem. Gus Hansen has shown himself as a competition player. Can he use his skills in money games?
