Our former free pick guinea A.J. Benza has left our cheap-ass confines and moved on to better-paying pastures in the form of co-hosting the Game Show Network’s upcoming poker juggernaut “High Stakes Poker”, which premieres on the network January 6th. Benza will serve as the show’s guido version of Norman Chad, adding witty commentary and pasta recipes between hands, or something. Benza has provided us with the list of players playing in the $100,000 buy-in cash game featuring professionals and rich amateurs that may(or may not) get your poker boners erected:

Doyle Brunson Barry Greenstein Freddy Deeb Daniel Negraneu Antonio Esfandiari Eli Elezra Todd Brunson Bob Stupak Sam Farha Fred Chalimar Daniel Aleisi Ted Forest Mimi Tran Jenniefer Harmon Sean Sheikahn Some guy named Amir who is a gynecologist Phil Hellmuth Jerry Buss
