LOL, "T" "durrrr" Dwan (probably the most successful high stakes player this year) Does "T" stand for Tom?? Id love to go play in one of these games, but would want added thrill. Such as when you go bust your chair is released and you drop in to the freezing shark infested water.

You have to chose. Sharks or freezing water. The "intersting" sharks love warmer waters.

I knew dinner in the sky, there was an enterprise that once did a publicity campagin in Portugal with people eating 50 meters above ground. There were lots of napkins flying around but those would tryed it loved it. Playing up there should be interesting too, because you keep with the feet loose in the air, concentration sure is not the same, and if the shark suffers of dizziness he can be easily detected...

I don't like the idea. What if you're kicked out with an awful bad beat? You will want to either fall the 50 meters or push your oponnet down, with both options having a sad end.

would be really funny to play like that 50m above ground and a great chance to play with some great poker pros for the two winners, no doubt it will be a success, but they should get more players to play
That's different, I never thought anyone would try something like this. I know people combine "High" and "Poker" together, but not literally 50 meters "High"
haha
