Occasionally on my YouTube feed, suggested poker videos pop up because poker videos are absolutely amazing.
This one, I promise, will absolutely blow your mind: This stars famous pro Gus Hansen. During an event called Poker Superstars III, with some of the biggest name in the game playing at a table, Hansen decides to start off his round by going all in.
But it’s not just any all-in call. It’s a blind all-in. He doesn’t even look at his hand (thank goodness he didn’t, it was 9-2 of different suits, a horrendous pair of cards). A couple of hands later? All-in, blind again, with a pair of 2s. Phil Helmuth calls him with A-J of clubs … and out comes a 2.
It doesn’t stop there. All-in here, all-in there, and when he’s challenged with his mammoth stack, he gets super lucky. Former World Series Main Event winner Chris Moneymaker challenges him with an A-10.
On the turn, what do you think comes out for Hansen with his 10-7? That would be a 7!
Even with a tough hand like Q-J against a K-Q, Hansen ends up with a tie thanks to both players ending up with straights.
The incredible all-in run keeps going until the end of the video with Hansen losing his first hand of the night, which is positively crazy. Here’s the full streak for you to enjoy:
Go ahead, try that strategy out at your local game and see if you can match what Hansen did.
The 2019 World Series of Poker Main Event is only on Day 2c but there are already some thrilling storylines developing including the massive stack of Gus Hansen. Hansen hasn’t cashed a live event in more than five years but as of right now he’s in the Top 10 chip count with roughly 750,000 chips.
Speaking to Hansen on break, he explained how he sat down to play on Day 2 with little motivation to play.
“I wasn’t super motivated coming from the big cash games into the tournament and I got short pretty quickly,” Hansen said.
Hansen eventually tripled up, closed out the day with 104,000 chips and picked up some added motivation along the way. Just before the first break started, Hansen raked in a few big pots to get to within striking distance of a seven-figure stack and a real chance at running deep in this event.
“I have a lot of experience in tournaments and now that the blinds and antes get bigger and bigger I get more and more excited. Hopefully and I can stick around for a while!”
With more than $10 million in live tournament earnings, Hansen all the experience needed to make a deep run and he feels as though the deeper he gets the better it is for him.
“When the money comes closer or people are looking to make a little more, that’s something I can take advantage of. Before the flop though, I think I’m at a little bit of a disadvantage because they think Gus Hansen never has it, but after the flop my experience gives me an advantage.”
Last year, Hansen said that it was going to be great summer and while this summer he’s having a good time in Las Vegas as well, things are a fair bit more serious.
“I’ve been more serious about my poker game. I realized that a lot of people ran past me because I was not working on my game. The guys in the big buy-ins are all specialists and I think I was a little crazy for not working on my game. I’ve been working more and hopefully, my improved play will also help me in the Main Event,” Hansen said.
