  • GSN announces Season IV of High Stakes Poker

High Stakes Poker Season IV was filmed at South Point Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas.

Regular competitors will play including:

  • Doyle Brunson
  • Daniel Negreanu
  • Jennifer Harman
  • Barry Greenstein
  • Eli Elezra

    If there’s no Mouth or Sammy, my interest level diminishes for some reason.

    I like the way Antionio plays. I also enjoy watching/listening to Kid try to reason out what someone’s holding.

    One of my favorite hands was watching Brad Booth move Phil Ivey off pocket KK w/ 24 suited and something like a gut shot draw on the board with about a 300K bet with only 20K in the pot at the time or so. Can’t remember what season that was.

  3. Pat Says:

    I hope they don’t ruin South Point with all of the publicity, it’s my favorite casino.

About Just Poker Talk

There’s a lot to learn about poker, much more than the game itself. The last few years are a perfect example of poker’s growth into mainstream American culture - books, movies, video games, television, poker players as celebrities, etc. Along with poker strategy and theory, Just Poker Talk plans to chronicle these happenings because it says something about society, about the state of the world, and, more than anything, we want to know what it all means.
