Gus Hansen has appeared 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 history competing against Daniel Negreanu. He raked in a big pot with 4 of a kind against Negreanu’s full house. Gus has made many tv poker appearances and is thought to be one of the best gamblers anywhere in the world. While betting on online poker, another side of Hansen has emerged. He regularly competes in the 200/400 NL max buy in of Forty Thousand dollars. Gus frequently buys in for the minimum of Sixteen Thousand dollars and plays very weak.
