One of the most popular and successful poker television shows kicks off 2011 with an updated look and a veil of some secrecy.

High Stakes Poker will air again on the Game Show Network starting Sunday February 26. The show previously aired Saturday nights. Another big change is the location upgrade. Previous seasons found players at the Golden Nugget in downtown Las Vegas, now the best players are seated at the Bellagio Las Vegas in the heart of the strip.

Players in this season agreed to a level of secrecy. One major change was the lack of interviews as players busting out leave the table. Also, players associated with Full Tilt Poker affiliation played in previous seasons without any logos on their gear or clothing. PokerStars has the official sponsorship of the show, causing those associated with other teams to either look fairly anonymous or be conspicuously absent.

There are some exciting confirmed stars at the table this season. Players’ Twitters reveal the possible presense of Phil “OMGClayAiken” Galfond, Vanessa Selbst, Antonio Esfandiari, Phil Laak, Jason Mercier, Doyle Brunson, David “Viffer Peat, and maybe Jonathan Duhamel and Scotty Nguyen. This collection make a great mix of online and live tournament greats. Taping began this week and the season should shape up to be the best ever. GSN Television shows they have the editing and sharp graphics that make the high stakes poker table come alive.
