High Stakes Poker Season 3

By Glenn Cole | December 26, 2006

It is finally here again, after a long, long break. It is of course High Stakes Poker I’m talking about. Now with even more well known faces, like Phil Ivey, Chris “Jesus” Ferguson, and the World Series Of Poker main event champion Jamie Gold.

I’m looking forward too see how Gold will handle the pressure of a table of just topnotch professional poker player. I’m afraid the old school players will eat him alive, and don’t see him gaining any money on this stakes, with these opponents. But hey, he might prove me wrong, but some of his reckless play will cost him a lot am I afraid of. Anything else new with the new season? They have forbidden the so called “prop bets”, just because it isn’t that exciting for us that watch the show. And to prohibit this “prop bets” the producers of the game is hoping for bigger pots and more exciting game.

Wikipedia got some great info on High Stakes Poker

In my opinion, this is a great thing, just because I want to see the money in the poker game, not in some lottery besides the game.
Stay tuned!
