High Stakes Poker, Not Just a GSN Show, Paris Hilton Loses Bentley

Posted on August 28, 2019August 29, 2019 by admin

Most poker enthusiasts have heard of the show known as High Stakes Poker which is broadcast on GSN, a popular cable network. But what people fail to realize is that television isn’t the only place where high stakes poker games can be watched or played.

High stakes poker games are all over the internet these days. Online poker players participate in games ranging from $0.01/$0.02 all the way up to $100/$200 No Limit ($10,000 max buy-in).

There are even some sites that spread the cards to games where the stakes are $1000/$2000, although these games are usually privately held. Knowing this, it’s astonishing to hear that there actually are people who have lost over $100,000 in a single hand of poker via a high stakes online poker room.

A high stakes poker player, Terry Elman, lost more money than many people could handle. Mr. Elman made the following statement, “I lost everything that I had. I lost the house, three cars, children’s college fund, and eventually I couldn’t borrow any more and I became a criminal. Actually I’m a seven-time convicted felon and I’ve gone to prison.”

So as you can see, there are dangers associated with playing high stakes poker, whether it be on the internet or not. But, just like the stock market, people generally know the risks in which they are running into, and still choose to participate. There are players who win and players who lose, we just hope that people can realize how widespread high stakes poker games actually are.

Sites such as http://www.highstakes-poker.com have been covering high stakes poker news for nearly a year now. This is an announcement of the intention of the website to cover more stories dealing with high stakes poker in the future. In addition, HSP will be adding detailed reviews and articles to the site, along with a brand new look!

There are also several other resources for high stakes poker players. We recommend going to http://www.macpokeronline.com/high-stakes/poker/ for a list of high stakes online poker rooms where you can watch the action.

For those who are worried about a possible addiction. If you might be addicted to gambling, go to http://www.gamblersanonymous.com. Another great read is the article by American Public Radio Works located at http://americanradioworks.publicradio.org/features/gambling/transcript.html.

Rebecca Lee started playing poker with her friends when she was in college. As a novice poker player,
she went online frequently so she could look for information and articles about poker to better
understand the game. Somewhere along the way, she decided to open up mypokerlegacy.com to
gather up all that she had learned about the game to share it to the world.

Since then, Rebecca has been writing freelance for several other websites, sharing her knowledge on
poker. She has since ventured into other table games like craps and roulette, but poker will always
have a place in her heart.

Other than writing or learning about poker, Rebecca enjoys reading up random facts about animals
on the Internet. She has a pet husky at home, which she brings out for walks every evening.
