I like to watch a lot of poker shows to relax, as I find them quite interesting, and I was recently recommended a series entitled "The Big Game". As I was going through the episodes I ran into this:



They have a fairly long discussion about both SC and MTG, and it made me happy. Anyone know who the "Loose Cannon" is?

I thought you were trying to become a progammer, you dont have time for poker, unless youre rekrul or something.

All players in the US and Canada can qualify for The PokerStars.net Big Game as a Loose Cannon by playing online qualifier tournaments running now. Make it on to the show and you’ll get to sit down with $100,000 of PokerStars money and play in the ultimate cash game against the biggest names in poker, including Daniel Negreanu and more. You even get to keep whatever profit you make in the game, and you’ll be invited back for the next episode if you finish the session up.


From pokerstars.net site. Basically you luck box a big tourney -- they call him an "aspiring poker pro." He probably has a day job while playing a lot of poker online at a respectable level.

He's still got one month to have his name mentioned by winning a tourney. Loads of time!

it's a pretty good show, the tables with hellmuth are especially fun to watch
the loose cannons tend to vary from bad to mediocre, the better ones seem to know standard low stakes ABC TAG poker

I highly doubt that David Williams has too much trouble getting girls.
Was funny though, unlike the commentator's lame "mom's basement" jokes.

Interesting tho, havent watched any poker shows since the last HSP season, maybe ill watch some more of this.
