The popularity of poker has grown exponentially over the years, and with that growth comes the rise of the highest stakes games. As a result, players from all over the world regularly gather to compete for millions of dollars and the prestige that comes with it. Fortunately, this has also been accompanied by the rise of broadcasted poker, which allows fans to eagerly watch their favorite players in the game for astronomical ammounts of money.
As part of the biggest stakes, probably everyone of you will automatically think of the Triton Poker brand, which regularly streams tournaments or cash games full of the most famous poker names. Well, on the other hand, we have more and more popular cash game shows, among which, thanks to the hand of J5, the production of Hustler Casino Live is stable. Well, that's exactly what comes with The Million DOLLAR Game - the biggest cash game ever with a million dollar buy-in.
As the show's producers promise, The Million DOLLAR Game will be "the most exciting poker show you've ever seen." The stakes are higher than ever, with some of the biggest names on the poker scene expected to jump into the game. As the first ever cash game show at Hustler Casino Live with a $1,000,000 buy-in, this show will make history not only for the club, but also for the global streaming cash game.
Just as important as the game itself are clearly the players, among whom we can already find several confirmed names. The confirmed line-up may surprise you, as compared to series like Triton, where we can usually watch the world's top poker players in battles for hundreds of thousands of dollars, this show is expecting more hobby players and gamblers.
Even if some names that haven't appeared in Hustler streams so far jump into the game, such as Ethan "Rampage" Yau, Chamath Palihapitiya or Rob Yong, most of the confirmed participants are regulars - Eric Persson, Nik Airball, Benjamin Lee, Stanley Tang or Mikki Mase. It was this lineup that stirred the debate in the poker waters - is it more beneficial for viewers to watch professionals or gamblers? What will you choose?
