The Hustler Casino Live (HCL) poker streaming show attracts some high-profile players and now controversial social media influencer Dan Bilzerian is the latest big name to agree to take a seat at the table.

He will play in the high stakes game in Los Angeles on Saturday along with other celebrities like soccer star Neymar, NBA star Jimmy Butler, Twitch streamer Ninja, and boxer Ryan Garcia. The expectation is that each player will initially buy in for $50,000 or more despite the minimum buy-in only being $10,000.

Bilzerian is never far from controversy and many people contest his claim of making a fortune from playing private big-money poker games. It’s not often that he showcases his skills in a public forum, so many people will likely tune into the action to see how the playboy fares against the other celebrities.

The organizers expect big viewership numbers which they think could compete with the all-time record for a poker live stream which was set in May 2022 during the HCL game involving MrBeast. The stream, which also featured Phil Hellmuth, Tom Dwan, Alexandra Botez, and Ninja, attracted 100,000 concurrent viewers.
