More rumours are sprouting out regarding the upcoming Season 5 of High Stakes Poker and I myself am very much looking forward to watching the series on GSN and even though I have to wait a little longer than most Americans watching the poker show I’m hoping to catch some of it when I fly to Las Vegas.

WOOT!

Jamie Gold, the best bluffer?

No way in the world is Jamie Gold the best bluffer ever — he gets called down like all the time due to his irritating habit of bluffing at EVERY pot. Anyway, sometimes it works and he gets people to lay down nice hands like this hand I found on Mad World of Poker.

Daniel Alaei has KK, Jamie Gold has jack sh*t, and Alaei lays it down. Congratulations Jamie, you’re the BEST in poker!

Phil Hellmuth’s flush vs Bob Safai’s flush

I can see people berating Phil Hellmuth’s play in this hand, but I’m quite sure he played it correctly. Not only is Bob Safai not the most solid player in the game, he also would have made the exact same play with any set or even two pair…

The “call” wasn’t what Phil wanted to hear though — mild cold deck.

Sammy Farha on “playing solid”

I love this guy — he talks about High Stakes Poker, but also about ‘playing the players’ and what playing solid means to a poker pro like Sammy Farha. Sammy is a high-action player, but he’s also a great sport. Excellent interview, he shows he knows what he’s doing here!

You the man, Sammy!
