Re: High Stakes Poker Season 5 - Pokertube First episode is here, can find the others through the search http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6pJPhs9mbnI Pretty interesting episode with a lot of action but the show is really missing AJ Benza, there were a lot of great poker moments in that episode that were just kind of left to hang as Kaplan was just talking to himself which is weird :\. Without that duo in the booth it just seems like just another poker show.

Re: High Stakes Poker Season 5 - Pokertube Season 6 has been pretty good so far, lots of memorable pots but i tend to skip past the interviews and random other segments they've put in this series. Phil Ivey is officially God incarnate.
