weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee  PAD cash game this week aswell I believe. life is goooooood

sserweeeeeet

do you know what channel and what UK time it is on plz?

man i f love hsp.

Sick lineups - just disappointing that they got rid of AJ Benza.

You know you're a degen when you'd rather AJB than Kara Scott.

Probs about 5 years time on an unknown channel.

If you want to watch sometime this decade, wait for someone to link it on here to an internet stream.

sorry Longy, I wasnt very clear. Do you know which US channel is showing it tonight and what time?

thanks

I think it is on GSN 8pm ET.

thank you

GTFI HSP is the nuts,looking forward to watching Hellmuth get owned at cash,again

Thought Andreas had pulled out of it

I think it was Feldman and Dennis Phillips stepped in.

I thought Andreas did play but knocked in 200k?

Yeah that def rings a bell. I know Lex plays, but there is obviously lots of different episodes/lineups.

Ah yeah that sounds right

iirc Karabiner reported it on here having bumped into Andreas in vegas at the time.

Andreas had FB pics of him at the table, guess he coulda posed for them then grabbed his 200 lumps and legged it saying he'd changed his mind lol

mev, didn't realise this was out yest/today.

Just d/l'd...about to watch, HSP is incred!

Still waiting for the rest.

Sandy

omg

i mean i hav laughed louder but not for a f long time! hellmuth is the f best such com he plays amazing but gets ridic ul every time. ul phil gg lol

banned prop bets!?  wtf that was the best bit last time

glad they banned the props. It's annoying watching someone looking at a board and saying 'im on for doubles' every f hand.

Hellmuth is so com. Deluded idiot.

shut up

I'll shut your mum up

how?  shove a kebab in her mouth?

Definitely a poor decision getting rid of AJ. Him and Gabe's banter was classic.

yeah, I heard she likes greek meat.

sigh 1-0

Hellmuths exit interview is hilarious saying Ivey runs so good against him obviously that was a sick cooler but come on Hellmuth is just a bad cash game player.

Gus and Negreanu love winding Hellmuth up. Superb viewing!

i like when he said one day he will take him of 1 maybe 2 mil.  sure you will phil ! LOL

Is the rest up yet couldn't find it?

bring back AJ plz.

Not a bad episode, always nice to see Kara and also see hellmuth get stacked. Does need AJ or at least someone else to bounce off and laugh at Gabe

Yes it is bud. When you are on one of the videos sandy posted click the name of the uploader on youtube (should appear in blue just above the video to the right). In this case you'll find the other two parts.

Bring AJ back imo, Gabe is still funny but needs a straight man to bounce off. If ain't broke don't fix it.

Hellmuth is an idiot, but he didn't do much wrong apart from not value raising the 2nd nut flush. Just pretty much got coolered.

Pretty unfair when Ivey runs like god as well as playing like god.

Cheers mate

I didn't post before as the guy was uploading as i was watching.

LOL @ Gus saying;

"At least if you check back the turn you still lose it all" just as Helmuth is walkling off.

Hoivold also gives him a pretty bad rub down after he loses flush over flush.

I enjoyed it, though couple of minor niggles.

Miss AJ alongside Kaplan. Think Kaplan needs someone to bounce his jokes off and there's no-one there to ask the newbie style questions.

Don't like Kara Scott's bits. Put her alongside Kaplan instead.

Thought the Hellmuth bashing went a bit too far. Made for some uncomfortable viewing imo.

Glad it's back tho. Something for me to do in uni for the next 13 weeks :)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Sk3rmOZzQ00

anyone else watched this with sound off?


I cant bear listening to Gabe talking to himself and im only 8 minutes in!!!!

Hellmuth is so bad it's awesome.

Hellmuth 4 bet folding AJo rotflmfao he has no idea lol.

the 'northern european' guy made me lol hard when they were describing helmuth in 10 words or less, he is so sarcastic and gabe started saying the europeans have more respect for phil than the americans.  wp gabe you muppet. 

just seen my first cut to Kara Scott. She's wearing too much and talking too much rotflmfao


Hellmuth is such a mong, Antonio always beats me so i'm glad I only lost the minimum with my flush even though when you play K2s you should be looking to get money in pot with second nuts. He's terrible. Literally scared monies. wow.

edit there is 1 hand that beats me, errr no phil the ace flush beats you and there are x amount of combos that antonio plays this way from utg, there are also y combos of flush that he plays this way that are under the king rotflmfao. wow.

Bring back AJ!! I dont really like/rate him compared to gabe but I prefer old format!

wanna buy an ice cream


mayyyybe



awesome gabe :)up

lol money gone, good game, yeah because cash games finish you idiot. does he just advertise on tv and then actually play ok otherwise?!?  :dontask: :dontask:



omg Ivey has been so lucky against me. he's so bad. rotflmfao

Gus Hansen is just incred, the Paul Parker of US poker.

lolwat? He raises durrrs limp with J5 with Ivey in the blinds behind. He limps AQss on the btn. He 4bet folds AJ. He is absolutely tez!

Yeah you are probs right, seen him play worse and he would have done the lot no matter how well or bad he played.

I Heart Helmuth! Legend!

The show really misses AJ

best line ever when Ivey 5 bets Hellmuth all in forcing him to leave $50k behind then next hand when everyone limps for $800 he says 'I got the same hand again' and folds lol

That was com lol.When Gus said that's the 50k breakfast out the window also made me laugh.

Best line!!

Good episode imo, can't wait for more!

Hand between Ivey, Negreanu and Hoivold was pretty funny/interesting to watch!

Mbn to be Ivey and flop sets for fun live  ;kev;

im actually looking forward to the day when Helmuth runs good on the show - it could be epic - telling is he has always been the best cash NLHE player and has jsut been unlucky all these years

he is quite spiteful too  - im sure he rubbed ivey by saying he didnt have bracelet in NLHE - but i may have misheard

yeah think your right guy that rings a bell.


Hellmuth is terribad at cash. The thing is if he came out and said Im great at beating donks in tournies but I suck at cash so i'm not going to sit i'd respect him more than sitting and playing so bad it's embarrassing.

Next episode up on Pokertube now.

Wish they would make the graphics more clear, I am having real problems telling the difference between clubs and spades.

Pretty tez latest ep, next weeks looks better though at least.

Watched it here, seemed fine.

http://www.pokercast.tv/high-stakes-poker-s06-e02


Usually just d/l though and its pretty much perfect then.

Banter is pretty terrible. Get rid of Italy and stick Matusow in.

What happened to Farha? Is he busto?

Says he doesn't like playing on TV anymore as it's bad to him.

Prob did his bollocks though.

Boring.


love the idea that Eli is there to 'earn some money' rotflmfao

Can usually find it on youtube at better quality, much better if your watching it at full screen and some guy usually playlists the lot up for you.

Ivey is so world, what is Gus doing with AK.

Awesome:

http://www.pokertube.com/my-pokerface?movie=13278

I forgot about this so started watching the first ep of the new season. 5 mins in and it is blatently obvious that Hellmuth is terribad.

manieri's river check make anyone else throwup?

Against Eli, he should probably bet out as I think he checks top pair a lot of the time. Eli could also have a second pair type hand, so a smallish bet probably would have been an order of the day. It might also induce a bluff raise from a draw. Although the flush draw his the turn, I don't think he has a draw enough of the time to warrant a check, and I can't image Eli floats a lot. I suppose when the eight fell, he felt he needed to act quickly, but, yeah, probably a mistake to check.

I like it against certain players who will valuebet thin. "oh i have top pair and he checked the river, i must bet" I'm not sure if Eli falls into this catergory, but I think the line is perfectly fine against some oppos.

i concur, havent seen u in ages snoops. ill have to pop in to bb hq soon.

whens is it gonna get up loaded on pt!!!!!!

Interesting prop bet on the closing sequence this week, $1m to go vegetarian for a year!  Durrrr booked the action, not sure who with, or which way round, prolly Ivey.

Is the way Gus Hansen is playing with his chips tilt anyone else?

Yes its Ivey in Durrr's heads up match way Sammy G they talk about it and he said that Ivey was looking to buy out for 50k but Durrr wanted to wait so he could get more of Ivey.

Ha I have just watched it now and was thinking exactly the same thing. Incredibly irritating!

I love eli though. what a guy

I like watching Eli too but he must be a huge loser in the big cash games in Vegas.

Does anyone have the best link?

thanks

how can you lose when your whole life is so full of win

Eli Elezra is hebrew for I cawl rotflmfao Nh Gabe.

wow negreanu sure didn't turn that 9h over on purpose                                                                 

+1. they genuinely made me laugh quite often.

I like the show but you can totally see how clicky it is,Gabe's comments about Hoivold made him sound like a tosser imo (not so much the hands he played),maybe just me though.

i think pad is just more interesting, because it's 6max, you see more hands and can see table dynamics etc.

better episode, Minieri spicing things up. Next week looks immense though!

Yes i think nexts weeks show is gonna be epic four players getting busted. Gus was top class he seems like a real cool guy.

Trying to watch earlier episodes of HSP cos Im sad but a lot of them are marked as private (username GSNvideos) and they're not on pokertube. Anyone know how to sort this problem?

yeh watch them when they came out first time

Poker Tube still has series 3 onwards on it. Are you trying to find series 1 and 2?

You'll get them on Youtube.

Not all of them anymore :(

poker bay apparently ;)

You can pick the series up on dvd off ebay for about £5 each.

Daniel Negreanu, a good player 4 years ago but completely failed to move with the game. Agree or disagree?

disagree - i think in a way (live) he is still ahead of the curve

Yes and no, he seems one of the most willing to change and adapt and be willing to learn from online players. Didn't he recently make a blog post talking about this and how hellmuth doesn't?

omg sick slowroll from Negraneu with 75 lol.

siccck senses by Ivey, but would be a truly ridic call.

Yeah, just watched it. Would have been a sick call by Ivey, you could see he really wanted to make it.
Next weeks line up looks good too.

Awesome pot at the end obv. Don't see how Ivey can really call tho. Even if Dwan is bluffing Ivey can't necessarily win.

Wasn't a massive fan of Ivey's play vs Mercier either. Get the impression he c/raised without a plan there. He even gave it the old "I know i'm behind but..." and I think was fortunate that Mercier was only repping the big hand.

I think Jason should just fold once I've raises. If he has £50k more in his stack I like the shove.

He was on the button. BUt I agree, should of snapped/snap folded as he should of known what his plan was.

OMFG that hand sent shivers down my spine, I had that almost exact spot in a big pot in the 2/5 game at last years Norwegian Champs and the sick bastard actually called me when he rivered bottom pair after missing all his draws (http://www.mysmiley.net/imgs/smile/sick/sick0021.gif)

lol

Best eps ever imo.Durrrr is sick to fire 3barrels there,Ivey maybe even sicker for seriously considering calling if he actually was.Best 2 players in poker for me.

Latest PAD cash game on pokertube. Pic quality is awful tho. Not watched it but line up looks a little uninspiring but spose it's a little different with all the Durr/Ivey/Antonius cash games:

Tood Brunson
Brandon Adams
Chris Ferguson
Antonio Esfandiari
Phill Hellmuth
Mike Matasow

Blinds are lower too? 100/200/25 as opposed to 200/400/100

it's like watching paint dry

even flopped nuts vs second nuts was only a $10k pot

I don't understand why they would make a show with lower blinds. Ali Nejad goes "and Chris 4 bets to 6100$" So??? That's like a standard raise in HSP

He also at one point said there's half a million on the table. So average would be 83kish. At least make it 200/400 or 300/600.

Much better viewing is the latest episode of the durr million challenge. Him and zigmund playing PLO.

Durrr just impresses more and more - how can he get that so right ??

Galfond commentating is awesome too.

Just watched 10 mins of that PAD cash game Ferguson wouldt even play the deuce seven game for $500 the man is worth over 100 mill.

Yes Galfonds commentry is superb.

yup uber nit... its pretty poor... only thing that makes it watchable is matasow...

Anyone seen this week's? Why does Daniel try and play Dwan so much? He's so easily outclassed

oh hi I has bluff catcher, ima raise you doh.



Phillips is terribad, robl seems to love getting it in bad against PA too rotflmfao


Why do we need laak next week to come in and talk way too much relative to how much skill/how much money he will drop. All of these poker shows on tv just suck so so bad. I don't understand why they think that telling us there is half a mill on the table but then making out it's a big thing to raise 3k pre even works. I'd much rather they were playing in games they were happy to stack off in rather than this pseudo-high stakes rubbish where the money never gets in.


Imo we just need DTD to do a live at the bike style show and we wont have to watch HSP/PAD again!!!

watching dennis phillips play in this game makes me laugh... he is so bad...

I know Phillips got the touches in wsop but theres no way he could be rolled for this game.

Iveys check on the flop way the K was nice to get the river bet out of him.

I think DN was just fed up of durrr outplaying him and thought he would outplay him back great timing lol i thought durrr played his hand great too trying to get DN to shove the river.

wow antonius traps robl amazing play... but why would he agree to run it twice lol...

I dont think he knew what he had so he maybe had him on a pair and didt fancy the suckout it was a big pot.

I.ve been dissapointed way this seasons show so far.

woulda been funny if he won both rotflmfao

Did't he suck out 4 times last year in a big omaha hand in the aussie cash game when PA was a big fav. Someone posted the link on here somewhere it was pretty sick.

ya was funny edit TP vs the world of draws.

oh yeh that idiot... amazing how such bad players have such big bankrolls...

YouTube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ct4S-5NlxAQ

think robl has played pretty good so far tbh, seems fairly results orientated to say otherwise

Yeah Robl is a decent player lol.. can't just say idiot based on one hand.

Looks like Ivey is replaced by Laak next ep. I'm sure I heard/read somewhere that Ivey/Dwan were in every ep?

can you stream these episodes?
and what season is it.

I dont think i have seen these on pokertube

Dwan's face when he realises Negreanu flopped a straight with the AQ is pretty funny! That had potential to cost Dwan a lot more!

i don't think negreanu could of played any worse so far

this. hi der bluffcatcher i will put my stack in here against a guy that will keep barreling and not fold much better than what i have. Negreanu is way out his depth imo, you can see he is wary when in pots against certain players. He is good when he's playing Jamie Gold, Doyle, Farha and Elezra but in this line up he is wayyyyy out his depth.

I cant work out on what I think about Robl, I want to like him, but find it increasingly hard everytime I see / hear him.

+0.5 to this since i find his voice ridic tilting but i don't really want to like him just think he plays good is all

52o :o

Awesome innit

Ivey is insane sick good

forgot about the ivey hand as i was still busy laughing about phil laak completing with the QQ after 5 limpers.

Why does he play in these games he's just so bad. I think Esfandiara is so much better but he has turned into a nit now.

when eli and sammy were playing nitty was defo the best strat for antonio. Laak isnt playing nitty he's just playing scared trying to flop sets before he proceeds.
Tbf to him tho if he pumps it up pre he's getting zero action ever apart from someone like durrr who just rapes him down the streets.

this

esp at end of hand where durr and negraneu turn over T and K high.

Didnt see Laak on the preview of next week? Surely he hasnt just come in for half an episode.

The guy seems pretty out his depth but i quite like watching him play for his banter.

Na i cant stand him. Next weeks line up looks the best by far.

he's a waste of a seat, at least bring in the richer better looking other half to spew off money playing bad. :(

Just watching the latest one - poor Daniel Negreanu - he shouldn't play this cash game

Poor Daniel Negreanu? The guy is a disgrace the way he conducts himself, smashing the table when someone else just done $100k+ in the pot.

ok benyamine just tilted me. so ur trying to make someone fold a flush. on highstakes poker. gtfo

yer i kinda agree, also the str8 v vilhaus (sp?) was unreal. I mean he cant be THAT past it to realise that was a horrendous slowroll.

Haha,Loved his thoughts on the hand afterwards,Gabe referred to fact he may be full of bs just as I thought it lol.

'I used to eat sushi 5 times a week, now I just eat vegatables' LOL why did I laugh so much at that?

Latest episode was pretty good, would have liked to see more of Elky though. I really wanted to find out how players like Mercier/Elky would cope in that kind of cash environment, ah well!

mercier already played in 2/3 episodes.

Yeah, but there wasn't much shown of him either. Either their hands weren't that interesting, or both Mercier Elky just nitted up.

Elky gets quite a bit more coverage in latest ep.

Wish that T came in the hand towards the end tho :)

What is the point of matusow being on the show? he cant afford to get his money in and he cant play well enough when he does play a hand. he spends half episode complaining about never getting anything then snap folds 57s in lp to an ep raise.

Wtf at doyle open shoving.

I remember Doyle limping utg and reshoving all in for 500k way AK in one of the earlier seasons shows.

lol at matasow folding  Qh Jh...

Pretty comedy stuff in that episode....

Phil Galfond's call with Q7 diamonds against Eli's A10 was a bit weird, no? Either gambooool, or fold on the flop? Doubt Eli's ever checking the turn, so Phil's play just made me curious...

Yeah galfonds call seemed odd. That said, if the diamond hits I don't think elezra is folding.

get it in on the flop... run it twice... standard...

Eli probably isn't folding, but when was Phil's poker ever about get it in if I hit, and fold if I miss?

Depending on loads of other factors that we aren't aware about, that might have been the best play for Galfond, but it just didn't seem too good to me.

Opinions on Doyles shove with the AQ

and wouldnt mike be better running it 3 times to make a profit instead of twice

Not saying it was a good play, but I don't think it's as bad against Elezra as it might be against others. That said, dunno what the stack sizes were. Doubt he was deep enough to call then fold the turn if he misses.

What galfond has to say about it http://www.bluefirepoker.com/blog.aspx?blogid=25 (http://www.bluefirepoker.com/blog.aspx?blogid=25)

Mmm, seemed a bit strange to me too just calling the flop raise with that Q7, but wtf do I know............

matasuw is so com. thats how u play poker boizzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz! after flopping kings full v 999 against negraneu. wpwpwpwpwpwp

lol im in library actually LOL'n at Matasuw/Negraneu, really wanted them both to go broke in same pot, so sick that the 2c comes after dwan talked. wpggul danyal san

matasow runs it twice??? he must be mega broke to do something that stupid...

So annoying! How do people just sit there folding every hand, and then manage to flop K99 holdings Kings against 9x! And then he wins both flips against Daniel, just so sick...

The series must be nearing to an end now? Hope not though, it's all about waiting for Mondays so you can watch HSP! lol I'm becoming a fan boy.

Btw, that KK against 89 on a K99 flop....

Can Daniel ever fold there? I suppose Mike could be holding Aces, AK (maybe), but that's about it right. So much easier to think about it after the hand and on TV, I probs never fold!

I would. Mike is playing out of his roll and the pot is huge.

He's guaranteed half the pot and almost a lock to win the other.

I think its worse for Negreanu to run that twice

the way Mike was playing he should fold

I was thinking the same thing,I think even AK he probably would just call when Daniel raises the flop,I think the only hand we beat is AA,but he doesn't have many 9x combo hands in his range since he's utg and playing ridic tight so it's either nuts or air but Mike's scared money in this game so you have to think it's nuts a lot of the time.His rubdowns on both hands really tilted me though he played the Kings bad imo even though they got it in.The rubdown after the AQ hand was pretty cheap imo but there friends outside of poker aren't they so seems strange he'd do that.

Lol yeah, "that's how you play poker boys"...easy game when you flop the nuts innit

Mike is never reraising AA there

He's made some pretty spewy plays on previous seasons so it's possible but I agree it's not likely esp with how tight he's playing.This would've been a good hand to look at without knowing the result.

its obvious he's scared to part with any of his money... take last week's terrible qj suited fold... if he can't afford to be on there he shouldn't play...

matusow is an idiot. another rubbish ep.

lol Marcin.

Have you never played in a game that was out of your roll?

I thought negreanu was so unfortunate there, he'd been playing over aggro and looking to get someone to play back at him when he finally does have it, unfortunately dickhead wakes up with the nuts.

lol as soon as mike called everyone round the table said kings full. As played i think daniels hand is a trivial fold.

To be fair that was after Mike insta-snap called!

lol pls to be playing with people in a cash game who think Mike doesn't have 89 beat there.

i just think he's caught up in his plan which has been clearly to play way more aggressively than usual and ditching his hands to any resistance, hoping to find a hand in a big pot and meet some resistance. The problem is obviously that its the tightest player at the table playing back at him and to us it looks a clear fold (i would have folded), hypothetically given his play up to now as i see it do you think its a trivial fold against Durr or galfond in the same show?

lol at people laughing at Mattusow

He is a very good player, with an excellent record.

Get someone to stake you into that game and see you how you play. He plays in a way which is  right with regard to the fact he is under rolled. Dint forget that these guys  benefit from air time, publicity and all those outside factors, whihc is maybe why he wants in the game.

At first i thought this for sure, then i remembered some of the history between Negreanu and Matusow in not just previous seasons of High Stakes Poker but things like Poker After Dark and Tournament of Champions 2004 i think it was. Theyve had some right set too's with Matusow running the odd huge bluff.

I know hes underrolled for this and you have to take this into account but i think history plays its part here.

Firstly those were in tournaments, where its easy to go a bit sick.

Secondly, Mike's playing style has changed massively since then. He's gone from lag to super nit.

Thirdly, thats seventy diiiiiiiiimes.

He's big enough 'name' to not need to 'get his face out there' and hes only damaging his pretty dodgy reputation by playing so badly and nitty. People watch the show to see interesting moves and good plays, not people just rock it up and wait for the nuts.

Just seen that in the UK poker den thing they have an option to vote off a player from the table every couple of hours.

Get Anne Robinson on there "You are the biggest nit....Goodbye"

(TitaniumBean once told me she was his ideal woman)

Actually I said she would be my ideal woman, but in 10-15 years yo  ;whistle; ;kev; aaaaaaallllllriiiiiiiight


and matusow sucks and is playing underrolled and is bad, and proud of going broke 6 times, yeah wp gg. moron. he seems so classless when he's winning and like the biggest douche when he is losing just a waste of a seat.

Yeah, to see him get paid off with Kings full made me do a little puke.

DN knew he was beat when Mattusow raised him. Looked like he just sat back in his seat and thought, fuck it, at least i can just moan about how bad i run on HSP if im behind, which im 98% sure i am...."Im all in"

Oh you call!? How about we run it twice so if by some miracle i do make quads on you, i will only get half the pot back anyway. WPWPWPWP

For me Daniel has done far worse for his rep than anyone else. He's just played terribad. He must have been watching some of my sessions at DTD

matusow is so classless. waits all night complaining then flops nut vs nuts where if he doesn't stack DN he's basically very very special. and tries to claim he played it well or he's done something right. he's just like hellmuth, clueless in todays style of game. I get so tilted watching hellmuth or mastusow  ;grr; ;grr; ;grr;

yes lol... 90% of my life...

For some reason I enjoy watching Hellmuth and his stupid rants. Mike is yawnsville

Its probably been covered / seen before but great viewing this Durr v Ivey hand

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vl19wCXXG7g

Matusow is terrible, KQdd wtf?!!? NIt die die why are you in the game, what a moron.

he obv doesn't want to flop any combo draw to put his money at risk... his winnings really mean a lot to him... he admits hes broke lol...

How bad was galfond's call on the river... i understand the turn call but river wtf...

Galfond just wants to try and 'prove' himself on TV I reckon. Was criticized for being a nit last time he was on, made another daft play with Q7? I think a few shows ago.

Why put money in the line up that wont get in the pot and then TELEVISE IT ffs zomg

dunno why but this season has just been one big disappointment for me.


Dropping AJ Benza was a massive error- Kaplan's jokes just don't work when he has no one to bounce off and Kara Scott's mini quizzes and interviews are pointless.

Meh, the presenters are irrelevant imo, don't care who presents it tbh........

totally agree.

I think the first half of the series was better than the second

Im dissapointed with Mattusow. I really like Mike but his Med's arent working and he looks like he is in the middle of a nervous breakdown. At least he is up, but folding that KQs was just puke worthy.

+1, i skip gabes bit now and i would just rather there was no commentary seeing as it isn't funny any more, nobody rates Gabes poker opinion above an average player so it's pointlees. chipmunk and kirsty's bits are totally pointless, it's a show for people who understand poker and they are saying nothing new.

still the best poker show by a million miles though.

Shouldnt episode 13 be on the net by now??

+1

Gabe's: Nit alert, nit alert, nit alert was pretty funny

Episode 13: http://www.pokertube.com/free-poker-videos?movie=13920&title=High_Stakes_Poker_S06_E13_1_4 (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oHg5SJYRHA0)

lol

thought this would be abit strange

:)

It's genuinely out now....http://www.thepokerbay.org/details.php?id=3441

9 hiiiiiiigh

nh Lex

galfond playing real bad too

Galfond just playing like an idiot for the cameras imo. Would never normally play as bad as that..........

Sigh, no Dwan or Ivey for season 7 as it's going to be sponsored by PokerStars

"While GSN hasn’t made a formal announcement regarding the current line up for the latest season of High Stakes Poker, word on the cast has been leaking from the players themselves via Twitter.

Taping for the upcoming season got underway yesterday at the Bellagio. That’s a switch for High Stakes Poker, which has filmed previous seasons at the Golden Nugget. That always seemed a bit of an odd choice, given the Bellagio’s reputation (undeserved or no) as the heart of high stakes poker in Vegas.

This season also marks a bit of a departure from previous seasons in that you’re unlikely to see any big-name Full Tilt Poker pros at the table – read more about why Dwan and Ivey won’t be on Season 7 of High Stakes Poker.

Anyhow, various players have confirmed to various degrees that they are taking place in the taping.

The short list of names speculated to be at the taping includes:

Phil Galfond
Andrew Robl

No word yet on if there will be any “celebrity” players this season.

Long-time HSP vet Daniel Negreanu stated publicly he won’t be back for this season due to scheduling conflicts.

Will all apologies to Mr. Galfond, we’re just not seeing a name on this list that replaces the kind of action that Tom Dwan brought to HSP. The lack of Ivey and Antonius would seem to further decrease the chance for interesting, aggressive play at the table. Of course, that could be solved by just giving Isildur1 a seat at the HSP table. One time, Stars?

Assuming Isildur1 is not in the mix (and we’ve heard nothing to suggest he is), you never can say what sort of dynamic could emerge, and if nothing else the sums involved should continue to be staggering – especially if Greenstein, who never runs it multiple times, is involved in the pot."

Worst thing that could happen was stars sponsoring this, sigh

Also it was filmed quite a while ago and its 600-1200

Negreanu played the last session on high stakes this season as he finished shooting a comercial earlier than expected.

sigh no dwan/Ivey/Antonious = gg HSP

Im sure Harabolis Voulgaris and Andrew Robl will play a sick $1m pot.....

well, scotty and jason mercier at least. mercier pulled one of the best bluffs iv seen in a televised cash game, think against justin bonomo. didnt work, but nice heart.

agree that its gonna be shite without durrr and ivey though, not normal watching those 2.

He seems like he at least was a pretty massive degen having sick swings, just for the name though he's in. Robl can gtfo unless he starts to spew. Selbst appears on the new season and said she played terribly so hopefully there are some stupid pots and some mahussssive swings.

I'd rather watch them play $NL100 min/max 500bb buyin. So that their regard for a buyin would be negligible rather than wow a massive pot with lots of money.... who cares I wanna see guuuut pokaz

Robl is pretty nitty so probs fh vs quads or set vs set

it wouldnt have been made (nor would season 6 have) if it wasnt for stars putting up the money, GSN did not want to make any more.  Saying that it is a shame I agree as now we have a TV program that is only HSP in name and nothing else. Its even more of a shame given that stars paid for it last year as well and we still got eli, dwan, ivey etc on then.

link please

What i mean is its a shame stars sponsor it and stop the tilt pros from playing

there goes ur invite

Is it Stars that stop them or Tilt ?

tilt.

Stars have said they can play but lederer and co refuse to let their players go on a Stars branded show. Fair enough really.

the same way stars have stopped their players from appearing on poker after dark

It's not like TV people have a clue who should or shouldn't be on a show anyway, PAD is full of chumps. hey lets get a table of the biggest oldest nits in the world that'll be fun to watch yay, Lederer, Bloch, Harman, Ferguson, Gordon (just lol ) etc how boring.

maybe but PAD also has just done a plo cash game with all the players you would want to see in the game
