Polk correctly folded a flopped straight to Phil Hellmuth on an episode of “High Stakes Poker” that was released this week on the subscription video service PokerGO.

High Stakes Poker will return in December 2020

Even new players have seen High Stakes Poker videos on the Internet. For many, this show was the first opportunity to see their favorite players in action.

• Weekly Poker Hand #335: If you are like me then you consumed all of the High Stakes Poker episodes all those years ago. The nostalgia was real this week as PokerGO released the first episode of the brand new series of this wonderful show. ⁣ ⁣ It wouldn’t feel right to launch this mini series.
• No US-facing poker site currently has exceedingly high traffic, aside from Bovada Poker and the market is at its smallest point with previous mainstays removing their emphasis on new players. Still, real money online poker in the USA remains a viable option and I’ve reviewed those allowing new players extensively.
• Tom Dwan wound up in the middle of one of the most memorable “High Stakes Poker” hands ever in the recent episode released on the PokerGo app. Three players were all-in before the flop, vying.

From 2006 to 2011, 7 seasons (97 episodes) aired, most of which can be found on YouTube.

Rumors about the return of High Stakes Poker started in early 2020 when Poker Central acquired the rights, but due to the pandemic, the relaunch of the show was postponed indefinitely.

A week ago, PokerGO announced the release date for the new High Stakes Poker season — December 16, 2020.

Moreover, viewers are promised access to all episodes at once. A $10 discount is given with the code 'HSP2020' in the subscriptions ($39.99 for one quarter or $99.99 for one year).

The Season 8 premiere of High Stakes Poker is on PokerGO tonight at 8 p.m. ET with Episode 1 featuring six new players to High Stakes Poker. One of those players will also be making his TV poker debut as former MLB pitcher Michael Schwimer sets to tangle with the likes of Tom Dwan, Bryn Kenney, and Jean-Robert Bellande.

The six players that surround Schwimer in Episode 1 have accumulated winnings of over $93.4 million that includes three WSOP bracelets and a plethora of other tournament wins around the world. The bright lights and daunting set of High Stakes Poker are foreign to Schwimer, but the high-pressure moments that he will face is something he has experienced in the past as a former professional baseball pitcher.

Schwimer was drafted by the Philadelphia Phillies in 2008 out of the University of Virginia and spent several successful years in the minor leagues before eventually getting called up to the majors in August 2011. After several appearances for the Phillies, Schwimer was traded to the Toronto Blue Jays, and when his baseball career ended, Schwimer founded Big League Advance.

Watch the Season 8 premiere of High Stakes Poker when it airs tonight at 8 p.m. ET!

“Oh man, it’s so exciting, a bucket list type of thing for me,” Schwimer said about making his High Stakes Poker debut. “I grew up watching High Stakes Poker, Poker After Dark, all those shows, and this was really cool to be able to sit down and play with some of the greatest players in the world.”

There are some similarities between making your debut on High Stakes Poker, and throwing out your first pitch in the major leagues. The nerves, the excitement, and the pressure – both to win and to perform. But did Schwimer feel it more pitching for the Phillies or taking a seat among the likes of Dwan, Kenney, and Bellande on High Stakes Poker?

“Way less pressure! The Major Leagues, that’s my job. This is just fun,” Schwimer said. “If I go sit down there and lose everything, it’s no problem at all for me. But the Major Leagues at the time, that’s my livelihood. That’s a lot more pressure.”

“It’s nice being able to play poker knowing that you’re playing with skill. It’s not necessarily about the money, it’s more about playing well. It’s more of a skill game to me,” Schwimer said about the relationship between poker and baseball. “Put it this way, in baseball, I would rather get very, very lucky, and pitch poorly. But in poker, I would rather play better and lose, then bad beat somebody.”

Schwimer’s debut on High Stakes Poker was a short one due to a prearranged business meeting, but he does return later in the season among a new line-up of players. Fortunately for Schwimer, his debut on High Stakes Poker was a perfect one as he managed to book a win, show a few bluffs, and make the highlight reel including this hand against Dwan.

“It was great, it was just a great session,” Schwimer said about his debut on High Stakes Poker. “I got lucky with some hands, getting ten-nine and hitting two pair on the flop against [Tom] Dwan was a really big kickstarter for me. Really put me into a good spot, and then throwing out a couple of bluffs there to let them know that I’m here to not just sit.”

“A lot of new players come in on their debuts and they’re playing aces and kings, and they’re playing super tight, and I think the pros can just pick you apart when you do that. I like to try and play a more aggressive, more chaotic random style. For me, I’m sitting down at the table knowing that I’m the worse player at the table. And knowing that and being realistic about how your game is can help you. So I’m trying to put myself in high variance situations, I’m trying to put myself in situations where I don’t have to go one-on-one and try to outplay somebody. High variance is better for lucky players, worse skilled players, and being honest with yourself and knowing where your skillset is, can really help you.”

Schwimer’s opponents on Episode 1 of High Stakes Poker have been staples on televised poker for the past few years which definitely gives Schwimer an advantage as they don’t know how he plays entering the session.

“They’ve never seen my game. They’ve played with each other a ton of times, but they’ve never seen me play,” Schwimer said. “So I think the more I play, the worse I’ll do. I’m not sitting here trying to make my debut and become the world’s best poker player because I know I’m not that. But to come in without them knowing my style, but meanwhile, I’ve seen them and seen how they play. I’ve been watching them play for years and years and years. So I know what I’m walking into, but they have no idea what they’re walking into and I think that is a big advantage for me.”

Schwimer will be back later in Season 8 of High Stakes Poker, and he also spoke with PokerGO a second time and discussed poker in the trenches as a member of the Philadelphia Phillies and what home games looked like while on the road with the team. Schwimer may be the lone amateur on Episode 1 of High Stakes Poker, but he definitely doesn’t sit back and let the pros run him over.

“Look, I’m not a bad player, but I’m not as good as anybody that I was sitting down with,” Schwimer said. “I was able to catch some hands and make some really good reads I think as well.”

Beginning Wednesday, December 16, PokerGO will be debuting a new season of High Stakes Poker every week. High stakes. Incredible line-ups. What more could you ask for? Make sure to watch all the new season of High Stakes Poker on PokerGO!
