The new hour long series features players from diverse backgrounds from all over the world. From the legends, to cash game players, to the young superstars that have been featured on "The World Series of Poker," HIGH STAKES POKER is going to be the first ever cash game where viewers will see the 'true' game of poker, where each player puts up a minimum of $100,000 of their own money to play. From episode 4x11 to 4x17, the minimum buy-in was raised to $500,000.
GSN has announced that High Stakes Poker will be back for a fifth season airing on February 19, 2009
