Oh boy, this could be great. I wonder if massively overbetting every river for value against George a la Neil Channing in the last Poker Den Cash game will also work at these stakes.

Re: High Stakes Poker Starts February 14, 2010 on GSN
Anybody notice or care that the new episodes start airing on Valentine Day? I guess they figure a huge part of their target demographic is unaffected, but that's still unusual to roll out new episodes of a show when people are normally doing something else.

Seems like a cool lineup.
But Sammy George.. Good for the game, bad for my personal health.
