So, Nolan Dalla and the HPT crew are filiming a new poker TV show. No details on when or where it will air but they are covering a group of players at the Empire State Poker Championship at Turning Stone. The shooting schedule covers the tourney ($1600 buy-in), $25/$50 cash game and behind the scenes 'reality show' coverage of the players lifestyle all edited into one show called 'Poker Night In America'.

They are currently (as of 2pm eastern, Friday August 9th), filming the cash game. There is a livestream of it here.


Greg Mueller, Gavin Smith, Tom Schneider, Matt Glantz, Kristy Arnett, Mike Matusow, Shaun Deeb, David Levi among the cast that are currently at the cash game table.

Feel free to comment on the concept in general or the livestreaming action.

Is anyone else not getting sound?

Started with no sounds and no graphics, then we got them, but sound was way of out sync. Now last thing I heard, they were going on a break to fix streaming issue.

It might be that we were hearing live sound and 30-min delay video. I'm not sure.

Did Tom Schneider lose a bet or something. What the **** is he wearing?

no sound either

I hear play by play of action but the video just shows an empty table?

Same. Sound is fine.

So i was getting video of actual play but commentary from earlier hands. But now it's gone offline. Hope they sort it out.

no sound.

But why? Is it 2008 still?

He must have....

Would be worth watching, but lack of sound makes it gash!

He's the CEO of loudmouth clothing - I think they sponser golf and poker? Google it. Wears that stuff every time he plays.

Seems pretty staged. Reports from a regular at Turning Stone says that 2/5 is the biggest game normally running.

Strange names to bold. You think Kristy and Deeb were more relevant in 2008 than they are now? Also, Matusow has won 2 high profile events this year already.

Regardless, these people were cast for their personalities, not their poker resumes.

Personalities we got to see none of because of the lack of sound, LOL.

Pretty fail start for this imo.

The sound and graphics are working fine now. FYI

Confirmed.

100% not staged its real players invited or filled out requests to play

I believe 100% that the game is real.

We're just saying that Turning Stone isn't exactly known for high-limit cash games. A high no-limit cash game at Turning Stone would be $5/$10, and I don't even think that runs every often.

Is that Weisner on the video stuffing her face but hiding on twitter and 2+2 because of the latest Lock developments involving her?

Edit: nevermind, the camera was too far back it's not her.

Exactly. I was saying that TS doesnt ever run HS games. I don't think the game play is rigged.

Well you're dumb.

lol @ people thinking Kristy Arnett is playing 25/50 and it's real....and her having multiple rebuys

She's come out and said she's sold pieces of herself

didn't she get a ton of coaching from Balugawhale? That could be enough for people to invest in her
