Gear up for the high-stakes showdown as Hustler Casino Live has confirmed the return of its $1 million buy-in poker game! The highly-anticipated high-stakes cash game will take place from May 28-31 this year. This event coinciding with the commencement of the 2024 WSOP in Las Vegas promises intense competition as it will feature popular players like Doug Polk, Tony G, and Alan Keating among its star-studded lineup.
The $1 Million Dollar game’s return was announced recently on HCL’s X account (formally twitter) on the 21st February. “
While the complete roster of participants is still to be finalized, Hustler Casino Live has confirmed the participation of some players that are expected to grace the tables alongside Polk, Keating and Tony G. They include Nikhil “Nik Airball” Arcot, Santhosh Suvarna, Charles Yu, Handz, and other show regulars.
The upcoming event holds special significance for India, with the Indian high roller star Santhosh Suvarna featuring the game. Suvarna, the only Indian with a Triton title and a WSOP Europe bracelet, is also set to make his a historic debut at PokerGO’s High Stakes Poker Season 12, though he was absent from the season premiere on February 19 due to his participation in ongoing the EPT Paris.
With Suvarna along with Peter and other aggressive players in the mix for the upcoming $1 million game, you can expect a pot larger than $3.1 Million. Certainly, it is going to be a brilliant spectacle and poker fans can bookmark Hustler Casino’s YouTube channel to watch the upcoming live action from May 28-31 this year.
