The Much Anticipated High Stakes Poker Season 5 will air on March 1st, 9pm/8c on GSN. Season 5 will have a minimum buy-in of $200,000 which is the largest for an entire run of a television series.
Here's the intro and first hand; I seen two other hands on youtube too
Wow, very very nice. Can't wait to watch the show. Mr Money??? LOL Oh it will also be an opportunity for me to discover Eastgate too, I don't really know his style yet.

Lets hope they arent allowed to split the pot and run the pot several times like they once did ... even the commentators reacted to that "Yeah well lets run it the whole deck next time! "

Wouldnt be the same with out it. I hope we get some crazy 72 action too, that was so funny in the last seasons. From that clip, looks like there'll be a fair few side bets going on, did I catch one on push ups? lol get Doyle doing some of that

Posted by doomdy: That hand between Laak and Antonius AJo versus 4Ts The pot is over 200K Was this donkish or superpro I really dont get it
Antonius is a bit of a calling station. And in this aggressive games it sometimes pays off. What tried Laak to represent? It looked a lot like he was trying to buy the pot.

I seen Antonius make a similar call on Poker After Dark against Erick Lingren. He must pick up a tell like maybe what Kaplan said, betting fast usually means bluffing.
