They have added the new frontpage on the website. No player-profiles though. Some new faces, who is the guy standing between Elezra and Sheiky?

Re: High-Stakes Poker Season 2

Re: High-Stakes Poker Season 2

Sammy's hair looks weird. Does he have plugs?

Re: High-Stakes Poker Season 2
 

Is Stupak not coming back this time? He made the first season, IMO.

Re: High-Stakes Poker Season 2
 

Matusow!!

This should be good.

Re: High-Stakes Poker Season 2
 

Ok, who's the guy at the front left of the table holding a cigar, right next to Daniel?

Re: High-Stakes Poker Season 2
 

The guy sitting down is Chaminara I think. The guy standing up I know is Elezra.

Re: High-Stakes Poker Season 2
 

oooh, grinder...

i anticipate matusow's gonna get torn up.

Re: High-Stakes Poker Season 2
 

Man good for GSN on getting this second season out so fast for us!! It's been what, less than two months since the end of season 1?

Re: High-Stakes Poker Season 2
 

When did Daniel Negraneau have his legs amputated?

Re: High-Stakes Poker Season 2
 

More of Todd Brunson and Eli Elezra? Yawn...

Re: High-Stakes Poker Season 2
 

Grinder: "What? I'm next on the list, man."
Todd Brunson: "Rawwwwwwrr."

Re: High-Stakes Poker Season 2
 

I know they mentioned surprises in this season and one of them better be a Phil Ivey appearance. Hopefully no AJ Benza either, though he became bearable by the end of the season.

<font color="white"> gus hansen, im pretty sure and he stacks negreneu muhahhahahah</font>

Re: High-Stakes Poker Season 2
 

Thats a sweet addition but Im still disappointed that the so called "best player in the world" is omitted from this. Im not blaming it on GSN, Im just disappointed in general. Im sure they did everything in their power to get Ivey to play. I really wonder why he wouldnt. Maybe he doesnt want to give away more of his secrets.

Re: High-Stakes Poker Season 2
 

How the hell does Matusow keep showing up at big limit games ... is he backed for cash games to or what ??? He's always saying he's broke yet he's always giving $ away on full tilt.

That's got to be the reason Ivey isn't playing. There certainly wouldn't be a bigger game somewhere else.

Re: High-Stakes Poker Season 2
 

Tom, this has already been posted. In Danny's blog he talks about how he pays off Gus's quads in season 2. This is not a secret/surprise player.

Cory Zeidman and Jen Harmon at the same table may make for some good TV.

Re: High-Stakes Poker Season 2

Alaei's a good player from all accounts.
I'm sure Matusow is more of a live one in this game than he is, if nothing else.

Re: High-Stakes Poker Season 2
 

Isn't Alei been tearing up Mahatma as 'PurpleRaize' on UB?

Re: High-Stakes Poker Season 2
 

Can you imagine: Matusow has top 2 pair and goes all-in, Farha calls with a flush draw and makes his flush on the river. Farha then says: you gotta gamble to win mike.

Awesome TV.

Re: High-Stakes Poker Season 2
 

I'm soooooooo geeked up about this. I'd rather watch this than the ME of the WSOP.

Might be the best cash player at the table, except maybe Negreanu, but that's close I believe.

I wonder if Antonio is getting staked for this? I remember after the first one he was chatting about how it was too big of a game for his bankroll.

Re: High-Stakes Poker Season 2
 

When does this start? Tonight?

I can't find anything on the gsn website about the first episode.
