Fate of High Stakes Poker

For all those like myself who had wondered about the fate of GSN’s High Stakes Poker, which seems to have been up in the air since the end of last season, GSN has now announced that they will indeed be releasing at least a 6th season of their highest rated program on the channel, despite the fact that the demographic of its audience turned out in a higher age range than they’d expected.

They haven’t released info as to when the new season will begin, but as for now we know filming will begin in September and will include some players that we haven’t seen on the show yet.

In the same breath, GSN has announced they won’t be renewing their World Poker Tour contract after the show’s first season with them. The WPT has already found its new home though on Fox Sports Net, which seems like a better fit anyway.

Enjoy the weekend!! Hope you have better luck than Daniel…
