The long-time poker pro is ready to get back into the action
Garrett Adelstein is set to make a highly anticipated return to live-streamed poker action tomorrow, at Bally Live Poker’s “Live at the Commerce” event. Known for his deep-stacked, aggressive playstyle, Adelstein will join an exciting mix of professionals and recreational players at the iconic Commerce Casino and Hotel in Los Angeles.
The game will feature $100/$200 stakes with a $200 big blind ante and a minimum buy-in of $50,000. The action will be broadcast live on the Bally YouTube channel starting at 1:00 PM PT.
Adelstein, a fan favorite in the poker world, hasn’t been seen at the tables in two years. Despite his hiatus, he expressed enthusiasm about returning to the game he loves, saying, “I’m looking forward to just getting out there and battling.” The event promises to showcase his signature style in a high-stakes setting, much to the delight of his fans.
The lineup for Friday’s stream is stacked with entertaining personalities, including poker vlogger Masato Yokosawa, who is known for his energy and humor. Yokosawa, trailed by a film crew from Japan’s hit show Crazy Journey, aims to make his mark against Adelstein in what he predicts will be a memorable clash.
Legendary poker figure Phil Laak is also joining the game, adding a nostalgic element to the mix. Having recently resurfaced after a long break, Laak is eager to reconnect with Adelstein on the felt.
The live-streamed event is sponsored by GGPoker and will be directed by Brian Arakaki, with commentary from Wayne Chiang and Ryan Malki. With its mix of top-tier talent, intriguing personalities, and deep-stacked play, this game promises to be a must-watch for poker enthusiasts worldwide.
