Just saw this on 2p2...

In breaking news from Las Vegas, the seventh season of “High Stakes Poker” will tape from November 18th to 20th, as GSN has given the green light for the newest installment of the cash game poker franchise. The location, time, air date on GSN, and players involved have not yet been announced, but poker fans can rest easy tonight knowing that “High Stakes Poker” has been renewed for another cycle. On the fleet of poker pros that could assemble for the show, a representative from GSN told Poker News Daily on Friday that the network expects to have “another great cast of world-class players this year.” Five players have appeared on each season of “High Stakes Poker” to date: DoylesRoom front man Doyle Brunson, Eli Elezra, Victory Poker’s Antonio Esfandiari, PokerStars front man Barry Greenstein, and “Million Dollar Challenge” icon Daniel Negreanu. Season 6 brought major changes to “High Stakes Poker.” Longtime co-host A.J. Benza was axed in favor of PartyPoker pro Kara Scott, who conducted interviews from the floor of the “High Stakes Poker” suite at the Golden Nugget in Downtown Las Vegas. The new season began airing on Valentine’s Day this year and featured players like Dennis Phillips and Lex Veldhuis making their “High Stakes Poker” debuts. The sixth cycle also hosted the usual suspects from the world of high-stakes cash games like Phil Ivey, Tom “durrrr” Dwan, and Patrik Antonius. The premiere of “High Stakes Poker” Season 6 was quite buzz worthy, as UB.com pro and 11-time World Series of Poker bracelet winner Phil Hellmuth went broke after dropping $200,000 in the blink of an eye. Hellmuth quickly shipped $50,000 to Ivey before committing his remaining stack on a board of 6-4-7-K with two hearts holding J-5 of hearts for an open-ended straight draw and a flush draw. Ivey held K-9 of hearts for top pair and a better flush draw and declined to run the river more than once. The final card filled the eight-time bracelet winner’s king-high flush and, just like that, Hellmuth was broke. Prop bets were also discouraged last season. Prior to taping Season 6 of “High Stakes Poker,” Esfandiari, the ringleader of prop betting on the show, told Poker News Daily that he had been asked to curb his pastime: “The prop bets where people would guess cards, for example, they’ve been trying to get rid of that. [Executive Producer Mori Eskandani] is trying to steer towards less betting at all. The bottom line is that he doesn’t want viewers at home to be bogged down with players prop betting in addition to poker.” The PokerStars-powered “Big Game” has recently filled the void between seasons of “High Stakes Poker.” The “Big Game” airs late nights on FOX and features a variety of pros battling with an online qualifier dubbed the “Loose Cannon.” The “Big Game” has a $500,000 maximum buy-in and has featured a variety of pros including Negreanu, Justin Bonomo, David “Viffer” Peat, David Williams, and 2005 Main Event champ Joe Hachem. It’s played in a ring game format with $100/$200 blinds. Actor turned poker pro Gabe Kaplan serves as the primary face of “High Stakes Poker.” Stay tuned for the latest on this breaking story right here on Poker News Daily.

As the terran marine says,
"It's about time..."

sick!! cant wait

so basically it doesnt really reveal anything about season 7, they just talk randomly about some things in season 6. all it says is that there will be a season 7 (big news who woulda thought). no news about who will play? would be cool to see another LPer in there fighting it up.

I bet there will be season 8 following

I love that big tv cashgames are increasing in popularity and tv poker isn't all final table 10bb allinfests anymore

cash games are way more entertaining then tourneys imo.

I hope Gabe sits for a while at the table. Did anyone see him on PAD cash game recently? I thought his play was cool.

and when hes at the table, Phil Galfond can commentate

Also would like to see Prahlad Friedman play, he seems to be crushing at the moment in the deepstack 50/100 on Stars.

ive always thought Gabe was a pretty good player, he's worse as a commentator imo even though he's not bad there either. just annoying sometimes.

It would be great to see Prahlad on the show...he's had a number of hands online that are just absolutely maniacal, and I wish I had the hh's for them. It really seems like he's constantly improving. As much as I'd like to see Galfond play, I just really hope he doesn't play quite as spewy as he did last time on the show.

You guys think Robl got invited?

meh i like gabe kaplan but most of my reactions when he talks poker is similar to when someone tells a bad joke and you sort of chuckle just to make them feel better.

that's cause there are 90% bad jokes in his repertoir

I think third times the charm for Galfond, hes never bad to be at the table.
hope Ziigmund gets another shot.

Ignoring Robls recent antics on the PS big game hes never been enjoyable to watch anyway, theres a bunch of players more enjoyable to watch than him.

i'd like to see sam farha back on the set, but whats the deal, is he busto or what?

You know what im thinking about this thread?

I know... Maybe the economy hit him hard because I think all of his money comes from hedge funds or some shit.

Mondays shall be bearable again !
