High Stakes Poker!

#1 18th January 2007, 11:46 PM

Do any of you guys watch High Stakes Poker on GSN? They just started posting new podcasts on itunes for the third season....this show is so much more fun to watch than the tournaments.

it is fun to watch for real money each hand, but the production value of the show is just terrible. It just looks cheap and corny. It's fascinating to me how one poker program (ESPN) can be so much more exciting than another (High Stakes Poker) through simple style of editing.

i think the high stakes is alot better than espn

I love HSP, its really cool seeing that much money on the table. I like that the production is low key, it focuses on the personalities of the players and the game. Thats what I find exciting anyway..

I agree, i think the production is part of the charm. Its exciting to see these guys make moves with their own cash. Check out the link to these podcasts. they even have clips from last season:

who caught the most reent episode?

#10 7th February 2007, 5:44 PM

The last one I saw is where Nagreanu went to the booth. It was pretty good listening to him talk about the people at the table while he's able to see their hole cards.

I only have seen a couple episodes from the first season (not even sure how many season it's been on) but I like it. I would love to have the money to sit with some of the amateurs they have.

#12 7th February 2007, 6:58 PM

The whole of seasons 1 and 2 are on YouTube, and it looks like some of Season 3 are there too. I love HSP.

#13 8th February 2007, 2:47 AM

I like watching HSP also except I'm not a fan of Gabe Kaplan and AJ Benza . Maybe I'm just used to the guys on Espn who I enjoy listening to. I think HSP could do with out announcers and just keep the table chatter which is one of the best parts of the show.

#14 8th February 2007, 2:59 AM

the mansion poker dome announcers are terrible too. so boring and no game understanding whatsoever.

oh - but i like gabe kaplan. he's kind of an old asshat and i admire that.

#15 8th February 2007, 4:54 PM

I wonder how much Jamie Gold is up or down? Some of his moves looked like some good bulffs.. then most the time It is just pure suicide...

#16 10th February 2007, 1:41 AM

They should let mike announce for one episode...he's obnoxious to the point where he is sometimes pretty funny.

I agree with joosebuck, Gabe Kaplan is great.

One question - What is GSN?

Is it a TV station, website or what. If it's a site for watching poker videos online has anyone got the link.

Much obliged (and ignorant lol)

I watch HSP just to laugh at Jamie Gold

#22 19th February 2007, 3:42 PM

I think Kaplan is a very good announcer and he actually knows how to play poker.

#23 19th February 2007, 4:00 PM

I like to watch too. Jamie Gold can't talk these guys into either calling or not like he did in the WSOP. It's nice to see something where they play poker and it's not a bunch of donks getting lucky.

#24 20th February 2007, 8:34 PM

Yeah, it's a good show

#25 1st March 2007, 2:17 AM

im liking the ****tail waitresses.

#26 1st March 2007, 4:09 PM

does gold like the camera time or does he just not like to fold. Well i guess give me the amount of money he has and id play any 2 crap cards also.

If jamie gold was choking on a blueberry, would you perform the heimlich??

Any of you guys subscribe to the HSP podcast on iTunes? They just updated it with a feature on Phil Laak...the dude is not all there. He and Tilly go great together.
