Gus Hansen had an amazing year on the World Poker Tour where he was the only player to achieve closing poker table in three of the competitions. Gus Hansen has appeared on High Stakes Poker on GSN where he paid $400, 000 to play. You may remember one of the biggest pots in high stakes poker recorded history competing against Daniel Negreanu. He won a massive pot with quads against Daniel’s full house. Gus has made many televised poker appearances and is considered to be one of the greatest enthusiasts in the world. While wagering on web poker, a different side of Hansen has appeared. He regularly plays in the 200/400 NL maximum buy-in of Forty Thousand dollars. Gus frequently buys in for the min of $16, 000 and plays very weak. He waits patiently for a decent hand and then goes all in. I accept that Hansen is an excellent poker player but not even close to the regular players at 200/400no limit. Unless Gus is bankrupt, he has no reason to settle at the game with the min buy in.

Buying in for the min takes a majority of the expertise out of deep stack poker. Hansen is assumed to be 1 of the best poker players anywhere in the world but he can’t buy-in for the full dollar value. I believe tv can skew our view of the real world every now and then.

Gus Hansen has proven himself as a competition player. Can he back up his abilities in cash rounds?
