Season 5 High Stakes Poker
Okay so I read about half a year ago that Season 5 of High Stakes Poker would be starting…. March of April 2008.
Now, today is June 2nd 2008, and guess what? No High Stakes Poker Season 5 yet… It got me thinking (and talking during our home game), and we decided that they’re probably holding back on us to RELEASE A MAYHEM OF A GAME once they do get it out.
They’ve tried to top the game every year, keeping the blinds ridiculously small, but as they’re is no cap it kept people coming. Sounds logical, but the players just counterfeited the baby-blinds by straddling (and double-straddling). Anyway, my guess is they’re going to at least have a Million-Dollar buy-in game, and they’re going to double the blinds, AND the antes.
We’ll see bigger pots, it’ll attract big pot players like Sammy, Daniel Negreanu, Jamie Gold or Eli Elezra, and it’ll be great TV.
GREAT TV. :D
I can’t wait.

I just saw that HSN is planning a PLO season of HSP. Not sure if that’s correct or not, and sorry about all the abbreviations, haha…
