I would like to install pokerth 1.0 (it is not possible to play online using old versions) from Debian experimental repository. D-do you think it c-could be d-dangerous??

Yes. Will it b-break y-your system? Not necessarily. Make a backup first and then install it. That way if it breaks stuff, you're one click away from a working system.
You're generally pretty safe if it doesn't need to update lots of critical libraries.
To add to this, I ran Debian Sid without issue for almost 3 weeks. Then it completely broke and I installed something else.
