Season 12 of High Stakes Poker, which ended in May, featured the largest pot in the iconic poker show's history, leaving viewers excited to see what's in store for Season 13. <\/p>\n
The wait is almost over as the new season on PokerGO kicks off July 29 at 5:00 p.m. PT, with new episodes airing each Monday. Producer and Poker Hall of Famer Mori Eskandani anticipates big things this coming season. <\/p>\n
Coming off a season that saw Santhosh Suvarna win the largest-ever pot in the 12-season history of the show, the High Stakes Poker momentum is greater than ever and we cannot wait for poker fans to experience everything the brand new season has to offer,\" Eskandani said in a press release. <\/p>\n
When we last saw High Stakes Poker action in May, Nikhil \"Nik Airball\" Arcot was playing monster pots losing some and winning others. The former Hustler Casino Live regular who is currently banned from Hustler Casino will be back for Season 13, and no doubt will be bringing the action. <\/p>\n
According to the PokerGO schedule, there are 12 episodes ahead, the last taking place October 21. Only one week off during the season is planned, with High Stakes Poker taking a break in September during the Poker Masters series. <\/p>\n
According to a press release, the stakes played during Season 13 will range from $200\/$400 to $500\/$1,000. But, as always, there will often be straddles in play to make the games even bigger. In the first episode, longtime High Stakes Poker competitor Jennifer Tilly will be joined at the table by Andrew Robl, Justin Gavri, Sameh Elamawy, Bo Brownstein, Masato Yokosawa, and Sean Dempsey. <\/p>\n
Tilly has been a mainstay in the High Stakes Poker lineup since the show's early days on the Game Show Network in the 2000s. Her longtime boyfriend, Phil Laak, made his return to the show in Season 12, his first appearance since Season 6. <\/p>\n
Phil Hellmuth will also make a return to High Stakes Poker this coming season. The \"Poker Brat\" will make his first appearance during Episode 11 at a table that includes Tilly, Robl, Nik Airball, DoorDash co-founder Stanley Tang, and billionaire investor Chamath Palihapitiya. <\/p>\n
There are some popular familiar faces that aren't among any of the Season 13 lineups, including Daniel Negreanu, Jean-Robert Bellande, and Laak. <\/p>\n
