One of the most popular shows in poker history has returned for a ninth season as High Stakes Poker comes back to PokerGO starting Feb. 21. The latest iteration of the show, and second season on poker’s premier streaming platform, once again features a mix of high-stakes pros and some amateur players that are both skilled and willing to gamble. The upcoming season will have a mix of both the old guard of poker and some of the game’s best new talent. For the second consecutive season, actor, comedian, and poker enthusiast Gabe Kaplan will be joined by A.J. Benza to do the show’s commentary. The duo were the voices of the show for the first five seasons, which were aired originally on Game Show Network between January 2006 and May 2009. In 2020, PokerGO rebooted the series for an eighth season and brought back the original commentary team. Poker fans will have the joy of watching poker legends such as Doyle Brunson, Phil Ivey, and Daniel Negreanu square off against other high-stakes favorites like Patrik Antonius, Tom Dwan, and Jean-Robert Bellande, as well as some of the newer faces to the game like 2021 World Series of Poker main event champion Koray Aldemir. Bryn Kenney, James Bord, and Jennifer Tilly were also among the notables to play. With blinds ranging from $200-$400 to $500-$1,000 and several players willing to straddle, there will be no shortage of six-figure pots and even the occasional seven-figure chip stack.
