High Stakes Poker

The most iconic poker cash game show returns in 2023 with Season 11 of High Stakes Poker kicking off on Monday, August 7.

Season 11 will feature 14 episodes and will launch the season debut with the biggest stakes the show has seen with a $1,000/$2,000 No-Limit Hold’em cash game that includes a $500,000 minimum buy-in. The lineup includes Eric Persson, Charles Yu, Jean-Robert Bellande, Ferdinand Putra, Rob Yong, Andrew Robl, and Rick Salomon for six episodes.

Players returning to the High Stakes Poker set for Season 11 include Brandon Steven, Jennifer Tilly, Lynne Ji, and Doug Polk. New faces making their High Stakes Poker debut include Bob Bright, Matt Berkey, and Nik Airball.

Watch Season 11 episodes of High Stakes Poker every Monday at 8 p.m. ET.

No Gamble, No Future

Season 3 of No Gamble, No Future will see the iconic Cash of the Titans livestream cut into episodes to open the new season. Across the first 10 episodes, the three days of livestreams will track Andrew Robl, Markus Gonsalves, Rob Yong, Matthew Gonzales, Eric Persson, and Patrik Antonius playing escalating stakes that begin at $500/$500 and rise to $1,000/$2,000.

There’s not just $5 million on the table, but there is also a $600,000 side bet – $100,000 from each player – that will be collected by the player that wins the most money throughout the three days.

The final six episodes of the 16-epiode season will see a mix of new and old faces. Returning to No Gamble, No Future include Eric Hicks, Eli Elezra, Shawn Madden, Justin Young, and Kevin Martin. Players making their No Gamble, No Future debut include poker all-stars Daniel Negreanu and Phil Hellmuth, along with Lynne Ji, Matt Steinberg, Lawford Edwards, and Arden Cho.

Watch Season 3 episodes of No Gamble, No Future every Wednesday at 8 p.m. ET.

High Stakes Duel

In early May, Daniel Negreanu defeated Eric Persson in Round 1 of High Stakes Duel 4 for $100,000. Persson declined the rematch, and as many players put their name in the mix to take on Negreanu, it was announced that Doug Polk would step up as the challenger for Round 2 where $200,000 would be on the line.

Negreanu and Polk have history in High Stakes Feud where the two played a hybrid of heads-up cash games – firstly at the PokerGO Studio, and then the remainder on WSOP.com. Polk won that battle, but now their own version of a Round 2 will be under High Stakes Duel 4 this August.

Both players are set to play in August, however, the date is not set yet but is expected to occur closer to the end of the month.

What Did You Miss in July?

The month of July on PokerGO saw the completion of the 2023 World Series of Poker which included Daniel Weinman winning the WSOP Main Event for $12.1 million in prize money.

Weinman topped the record-smashing field of 10,043 entrants in the 2023 WSOP Main Event and rode a wave of great play, mixed with some good fortune. Weinman won a hand with 14 players remaining that will go down as the luckiest hand he has ever played. For Joshua Payne, the hand will forever be his WSOP Main Event heartbreak moment.

Some of the wildest moments from the 2023 WSOP Main Event also included this hand from Tom Dwan that saw him hit the rail:

High Stakes Duel

Jason Koon wrapped up High Stakes Duel 3 in December 2022 when he defeated Phil Hellmuth in Round 5 for the $1.6 million prize pool. No challenger stepped up to face the GGPoker brand ambassador, and the series ended with Koon the champion and recipient of the High Stakes Duel 3 belt.

High Stakes Duel 4 will return to PokerGO this week with three matches scheduled. On Friday, May 5, the first-ever “Undercard” will take place with Shaun Deeb facing off with Mike Matusow in the $20,000 match. Both have previous history with each other with Deeb delivering an epic slow roll to Matusow on a past Poker Night in America livestream.

The High Stakes Duel 4 Undercard match between Deeb and Matusow is a one-off match and there are no obligations for them to play again.

On Monday, May 8, Daniel Negreanu will return to the High Stakes Duel arena to take on Eric Persson in the $100,000 match. There is currently no bad blood between these two players, but they have experience playing each other on High Stakes Poker. These two have already committed to a Round 2 regardless of the result, and on Tuesday, May 9, the two will face off in the $200,000 match.

Unlike previous alliterations of High Stakes Duel where you had to win three matches before cashing out, in High Stakes Duel 4, if a player wins two matches in a row, they can cash out. Each match kicks off at 8 p.m. ET with the Undercard being free on PokerGO’s YouTube channel, while prior to Round 1 and 2, there will be The Weigh-In hosted by Ali Nejad airing at 7:30 p.m. ET.

Watch High Stakes Duel on May 5, 8, and 9, starting at 8 p.m. ET.

What Did You Miss in March?

It was another busy month of April on PokerGO that saw the conclusion of the U.S. Poker Open and the continuation of the High Stakes Poker and No Gamble, No Future seasons. It also welcomed the first-ever livestream from a High Stakes Poker filming.

Seven U.S. Poker Open champions were crowned in March, while three events remained once the calendar hit April. Isaac Haxton emerged victorious in Event #8 for $432,000 and eclipsed $6 million in earnings for 2023. Dan Smith claimed his first win inside the PokerGO Studio in Event #9 for $399,500, while Martin Zamani won the $50,000 finale for $666,000. Zamani’s win and four cashes secured his title as the U.S. Poker Open champion.

Season 10 of High Stakes Poker continued with a lineup featuring Jennifer Tilly, Stanley Tang, Jean-Robert Bellande, Eric Persson, Stanley Choi, Andrew Robl, and Daniel Negreanu playing $200/$400 No-Limit Hold’em.

Following the drama online that lined up with filming of Season 11, a special edition livestream aired on Thursday, April 27. The game was $200/$400 No-Limit Hold’em and included Doug Polk, Matt Berkey, Nik “Airball” Arcot, Lynne Ji, Rob Yong, Bellande, Tilly, and Persson. There were some massive hands, some very interesting table dynamics, and the following hand to kick off the night’s action:

The continuation of Season 2 of No Gamble, No Future would also introduce a new line-up that included Eric Hicks, James Bord, Evan Sofer, Justin Young, Eric Worre, Eric Wasserson, and Eric Persson. Following three episodes of $200/$400 No-Limit Hold’em, the stakes would lower to $25/$50 No-Limit Hold’em where Steve “Cuz” Buckner, Jared Jaffee, Kevin Martin, Sashimi Poker, Jimmy D’Ambrosio, and Young battle away.

High Stakes Duel III continues with Phil Hellmuth having the opportunity to walk away as the three-time champion if he can defeat Jason Koon for the $1.6 million prize. No Gamble, No Future continues with weekly episodes, while Friday Night Hangouts with Boston Rob will be available on the PokerGO YouTube channel.

High Stakes Duel

High Stakes Duel III is returning in December with Phil Hellmuth in the winner’s chair following his Round 4 victory over Scott Seiver. High Stakes Duel history will be made for the consecutive round as a $1,600,000 prize pool will be up for grabs between Hellmuth and his newest opponent, Jason Koon.

Koon takes the seat that Seiver vacated and will be putting up $800,000 in a bid to dethrone Hellmuth and push the action to an unprecedented Round 6.

Hellmuth was on a seven-match win streak before he was defeated by Tom Dwan in Round 2. Hellmuth steered the chip in the right direction and defeated Dwan, and then Seiver. Hellmuth is now one victory away from $1,600,000 and having the option to walk away as the High Stakes Duel III champion.

If Koon defeats Hellmuth, he will advance to Round 6 where Hellmuth will have the first option to challenge Koon in a match for $3,200,000. Koon will need to win two consecutive matches for him to be granted the option to walk away as the High Stakes Duel III champion.

Round 5 of High Stakes Duel III is set to premiere on Wednesday, December 7, at 8 p.m. ET with Hellmuth and Koon battling for $1,600,000. The Weigh-In is set to air on Wednesday at 7:30 p.m. ET with Ali Nejad hosting the sit down between the two Round 5 opponents.

What Did You Miss in May?

May on PokerGO saw the conclusion of the current High Stakes Poker season as well as a return to the High Stakes Duel battleground.

The final few episodes of Season 9 of High Stakes Poker aired in May culminating in an exciting end to the season. High Stakes Poker debutants Eric Persson, Garrett Adelstein, Krish Menon, and DoorDash co-founder Stanley Tang had many memorable moments against fellow businessmen and the poker professionals.

Daniel Negreanu and Doyle Brunson returned for the final two episodes and took a seat against the old guard that included Tom Dwan, Patrik Antonius, and Phil Ivey. It would be Dwan capping the season on the highest note as his chip stack surpassed the $1.1 million mark to end another fantastic season of High Stakes Poker.

High Stakes Duel III resumed, but with a new challenger taking a seat across from Phil Hellmuth. Due to scheduling conflicts, Dwan had to back out as he flew off to Triton Madrid. This paved the way for Scott Seiver to ante up the $400,000 and take a seat in Round 4.

Both Hellmuth and Seiver were playing for an unprecedented $800,000 in High Stakes Duel history, and when the dust settled on an intriguing back-and-forth match, it would be Hellmuth securing his ninth High Stakes Duel victory.

Hellmuth’s seven-match win streak was ruined by Dwan in Round 2, but The Poker Brat righted the ship that has seen him collect eight High Stakes Duel victories against Daniel Negreanu, Antonio Esfandiari, Fox Sports 1’s Nick Wright, and now Dwan.

This Round 4 match will see an unprecedented $800,000 prize pool at stake, and regardless of the result, the duel’s rules stipulate that a Round 5 will be needed where there will be $1.6 million up for grabs. Following High Stakes Duel rules, both Hellmuth and Dwan will have to win two consecutive matches before they have the option to cash out.

It was a busy April on PokerGO with the continuation of High Stakes Poker, Super High Roller Series Europe, and the inaugural PokerGO Tour (PGT) Heads-Up Showdown.

Season 9 of High Stakes Poker in April saw four action-packed episodes where the pots were big, and the table talk even grander. Jennifer Tilly, Garrett Adelstein, and Daniel Negreanu couldn’t stay out of the limelight as they were involved in some of the biggest pots of the season.

The high roller poker tournament action headed to North Cyprus for Super High Roller Series Europe. Phil Ivey won two events and the overall championship, while Jake Schindler won Super High Roller Bowl Europe for $3.2 million in prize money.

PokerGO’s newest event was the $25,000 PGT Heads-Up Showdown. The 32-player invitational included a mix of PGT players, cash game players, tournament veterans, celebrities, and other PokerGO invitees. The final would see Chino Rheem taking on Darren Elias with Rheem continuing his outstanding year and notching a $400,000 win against his fellow WPT Champions Club member.

Dwan has the first right to challenge and take a seat across from Hellmuth, but if he doesn’t, plenty of new players will be looking to take on the eight-time High Stakes Duel winner. For Hellmuth, he still needs two more victories to be crowned the High Stakes Duel III champion meaning that a Round 5 is on the schedule where there will be a $1.6 million winner’s purse awaiting.

High Stakes Duel II

Phil Hellmuth celebrated Cinco de Mayo with a victory over Daniel Negreanu in Round 2 of High Stakes Duel II. With Hellmuth collecting the $200,000 prize. Plus, he also locked up his fifth consecutive High Stakes Duel victory on the back of his sweep of Antonio Esfandiari.

Following an immediate challenge from Negreanu, Round 3 is now set for Wednesday, June 23, where the two will face-off in the $400,000 match. If Hellmuth wins, he will have the option to cash out and be crowned the High Stakes Duel II champion – something he has hinted at doing already. If Negreanu wins, the ball will be in Hellmuth’s court if he wants to challenge and play for $800,000 – that is something he has hinted at not doing – and one opponent waiting in the wings for Negreanu is Tom Dwan.

Round 3 is set to premiere on Wednesday, June 23, at 8 p.m. ET with Hellmuth and Negreanu battling for $400,000. The Weigh-In will air at 7:30 p.m. ET with Ali Nejad taking over hosting duties.

High Stakes Duel II

After sweeping Antonio Esfandiari in High Stakes Duel back in October 2020, Phil Hellmuth turned his attention to Daniel Negreanu for High Stakes Duel II. Hellmuth claimed the victory in a marathon match that saw him sink as low as 3,000 chips from the 100,000 in play before mounting an epic comeback to win the $100,000 match.

“I would rematch Phil for eternity,” Negreanu said before a single card was dealt in High Stakes Duel II. “There is no possible way I would say no to a rematch with Phil Hellmuth.”

Following those words from Negreanu, the Round 2 match for $200,000 was set with two scheduled to face-off on Wednesday, May 5 at 8 p.m. ET. Round 2 of High Stakes Duel II will again feature three unique shows; The Hype Show on Tuesday, and The Weigh-In and Round 2 airing Wednesday from 7:30 p.m. ET.

What Did You Miss in March?

The question should be, what DIDN’T you miss in March on PokerGO? The March releases on PokerGO would see over 20 episodes of new content roll out two new weeks of Poker After Dark, along with the conclusion of High Stakes Poker.

However, the highlight of the month was the highly anticipated match between Phil Hellmuth and Daniel Negreanu in Round 1 of High Stakes Duel II. Hellmuth swept Antonio Esfandiari back in October 2020, and now Negreanu was stepping up to the plate to take on the defending champion. Both players would be dueling for the $100,000 prize pool, but most importantly, the bragging rights.
