New Era for Poker Content
High Stakes Poker Productions (HSPP), the creators of Hustler Casino Live (HCL), have launched the High Stakes Poker Network (HSPN), a 24/7 poker streaming channel now available on the Kick platform. Fans can enjoy the best HCL episodes alongside other exclusive content produced by HSPP.
This move expands the company’s presence on Kick, where recent Hustler Casino Live streams have been broadcast exclusively. However, HCL isn’t leaving YouTube, with streams resuming there on November 21, featuring a $100/$200/$400 game with familiar names like Wesley, Peter, and Britney.
Co-owner Ryan Feldman shared his vision for the channel:
“By co-streaming on Kick and YouTube, we’re reaching a broader audience and tapping into a new demographic. We’re excited about Kick’s future and the opportunities it offers for poker streaming.”
A 16-Day Poker Marathon
The return to YouTube marks the start of 16 straight days of Hustler Casino Live streaming, including the show’s first-ever broadcasts from outside the United States. Starting Monday, HCL will stream for a week from the Onyx Club in Cyprus, promising high-stakes action in an international setting.
While no specific players have been confirmed for Cyprus yet, reports suggest appearances from poker stars like Rob Yong, Charles Yu, The Professor, and Nik Airball, who has been absent from HCL since March due to compliance issues. Fans are eager to see if Airball will make his much-anticipated return.
Stake Poker Night: A New Monthly Feature
Adding to the excitement, HSPP is launching a monthly show called Stake Poker Night, which will stream exclusively on Kick. Scheduled to debut on December 6, the show aims to blend the worlds of poker and entertainment, bringing together streamers, creators, athletes, and celebrities for high-stakes games.
Feldman expressed his enthusiasm for the concept:
“Stake Poker Night will connect different worlds to grow the game of poker. Expect some big names and exciting matchups.”
Navigating Challenges and Moving Forward
Hustler Casino Live’s recent expansions come in the wake of controversy, as co-founder Nick Vertucci stepped down following allegations of misconduct. HSPP issued a statement emphasizing its commitment to delivering high-quality content:
“Effective immediately, Nick Vertucci will no longer be involved with High Stakes Poker Productions. We remain focused on bringing the best high-stakes poker content to our community.”
Conclusion
The launch of the High Stakes Poker Network on Kick and the lineup of fresh content, including Stake Poker Night, signal a new chapter for Hustler Casino Live. With its international streaming debut in Cyprus and plans to connect poker with the broader entertainment world, HSPP is doubling down on its mission to elevate poker content to new heights.
