Bobby Baldwin made a name for himself in the poker world after winning four World Series of Poker (WSOP) bracelets including the 1978 WSOP Main Event and playing some of the highest stakes cash games.

In more recent times, he's better-known as a casino executive and for the high-stakes poker room named after him called Bobby's Room at the Bellagio. His accomplishments and contributions led for him to be inducted into the Poker Hall of Fame by his peers in 2003.

This week, Poker Central released a five-minute documentary titled Stories from the Felt - The Legend of Bobby's Room which included clips from some of the players who have seen first-hand the million dollar swings that take place on a frequent basis at this legendary poker room.

Elezra: 'I lost in one night 1.37 million.'

Eli Elezra kicked off the video talking about some of these swings. 'I lost in one night 1.37 million,' said Elezra. 'My parents never made this kind of money for all their life. Then you have the day that I won $1.78 million in eight hours. Then you leave this place, and you think, nobody can touch you, you are the best pro poker player in the world.'

Nick Schulman attended Bobby's Room for the first time when he was just of legal age at 21-years old. He gives his perspective on the types of players that frequent the room.

'It's a very interesting place,' said Schulman. 'You really have a collection of talented players, degenerate gamblers, chiseled old veterans, and you have new guys. And you have guys like me that are sort of in the middle I guess at this point. But the one thing all of these people have in common is some desire to play stakes like this.'

Schulman: 'The one thing all of these people have in common is some desire to play stakes like this.'

Later in the video, players including Schulman, Jennifer Harman, Todd Brunson, and tv producer Mori Eskandani talk about how players handle the massive swings that take place with the big action in the poker room.

Not all of the players that visit Bobby's Room are poker pros as some just want to play the highest stakes possible and others just want to feel what it's like to play with the pros. Elezra told an anecdote where a rich player holding 17 chips valued at a combined $1.7 million just wanted to play with them since he saw them on television.
