Controversial social media personality Dan Bilzerian has been added to Saturday’s Hustler Casino Live stream, which already features a star-studded line-up. Two years after calling poker players “f*****g nerds,” the former GGPoker ambassador is set to join a high-stakes poker game at Hustler Casino in Los Angeles. His participation is expected to draw both criticism from the poker community and a significant number of viewers.
Bilzerian, often labeled a misogynist, is a divisive figure on social media but boasts millions of followers on platforms like X and Instagram. He claims to have won over $50 Million playing poker in high-stakes private games against celebrities and billionaires. While some question the validity of these claims due to the lack of verifiable records, many take his word for it.

The game will feature $50/$100 blinds with a $10,000 minimum buy-in, but HCL co-owner Ryan Feldman anticipates each player will buy in for at least $50,000. Bilzerian rarely participates in public poker games, so this event provides a rare opportunity for fans and critics alike to evaluate his poker skills.
What a lineup. Major props to hustler for putting the together https://t.co/bN8q8QlKQG

On the No Jumper Podcast in June 2022, Bilzerian expressed his preference for playing against wealthy amateurs rather than professional high-stakes players. He said, “My goal with poker was always to play with people that were playing for fun… not the guy that was trying to be a f*****g killer.” In Saturday’s Hustler Casino Live game, Bilzerian will face a group of recreational players, which aligns with his stated preferences.
The expected viewership for this stream is high, potentially rivaling the “MrBeast Game” from May 2022, which had over 100,000 concurrent viewers, a record for poker live streams. Hustler Casino Live recently saw 30,000+ concurrent viewers during its Million Dollar Game week earlier this month.
