Watch the replay here as the Breaking Bad star made his debut for LA Sunset in the GPL.

Aaron Paul

One of the big surprise stories of the poker year so far comes to fruition, as actor Aaron Paul will play in the Global Poker League tonight.

The star, who played Jesse Pinkman in the hit show Breaking Bad, announced earlier this year he would play as a wildcard entry for Maria Ho's LA Sunset.

Now Alex Dreyfus has confirmed that he will debut tonight, at 20:00 EDT (01:00 CET tomorrow) in a match against Fabrice Soulier from the Paris Aviators.

Aaron Paul is a well documented poker fan, who played the World Series of Poker last year with his own money (rather than for a sponsor) and was spotted playing live poker last month.

You can watch the match live right here on the Twitch stream below from 20:00 EDT:
