answer okay and ended last night session on a hot streak two in a row shoes for two please don't make her nick cassavetes hollywood success hasn't translated to the table using money it's one of those those and Vanessa selves pulled off a massive and concealed River bluffed and frustrated the magician into adding on to more bullets and by Anwar chillin by the big Reebok you know I just I played this problem Vanessa and now I just want to punish it I can't think of a worse way to lay money on fire I find out if a Antonio gets his wish or if Vanessa can use his aggression against him on the big game make this a crazy fun episode [Music] hello everyone and welcome back inside our state-of-the-art poker room here in Las Vegas Nevada alongside Joe Stapleton I'm Scott Huff and tonight the action continues as some of pokers best and brightest battle it out for the nearly 1 million dollars stacked on the felt in the sixth hole is prologue Friedman aka spirit rock he's a vegan rapper repping the boo that's Malibu so far he's been all Hollywood up almost 40 K Antonio Esfandiari lost a big pot to Vanessa Selbst last night but added on 200k at the end of the session he has over three hundred and twenty-two thousand turned that frown upside down Vanessa you're on the big game in your pony souls she's up just over 93 K Hollywood director nick cassavetes has been directing his chips to go into other people's stacks he's stuck almost 84,000 this week's loose cannon is 29 year old Jared Huggins the Manhattan Beach native recently overcame being homeless with the help of the poker community now jared says he wants to pay it forward by donating a portion of any winnings to charity they're getting a portion of a bagel at the moment Jared stuck over 25 dimes and our final player is poker pro barry greenstein after losing an early bluff to Vanessa Bayer he's been trying to gain traction all week he's with Amanda Leatherman Barry pretty tough table out there huh yeah very tough and I've got the three toughest players to my left so it's really tough because it means I'm off gonna be playing against them out of position I tried it one time ago Vanessa badly timed out of position Bluff and it cost me 60,000 I haven't recovered from it so it looks like I'm gonna need to pick up a hand let's to get back in it what do you think of a loose cannon spine so far well it's been typical loose cannon play you know he's played pretty tight he's waiting towards the end he probably should have mix it up early I'm sure he hasn't had good hands but he has credibility nobody's gonna call his raise or at least they wouldn't have earlier but if he waits the last 30 hands to make a move then he loses that credibility because we know he has to gamble so if you were him you would make a move now got to do it now a better sooner than later all right good luck Thanks here are the rules for the loose cannon each cannon his States $100,000 he keeps all profits above the initial 100,000 and at season's end the loose cannon who's won the most money earns a North American Poker Tour Passport Valley $50,000 Jared's got a long way they get to that Passport he trails the aptly named Gonzalez Canon by over a hundred eighty thousand with just over fifty hands left to play I'm sure Jarrod's first priority will be turning a profit we'll begin the night with hand ninety three action on Vanessa Selbst yeah at this point ace queen raises to 1300 a seven suited for antonio antonio reloaded specifically so he could have vanessa covered I expect him to be gunning for her and he calls for a lot Freedman five Trey bolts King deuce for Huggins all right and he folds Cassavetes out Greenstein down knocking a lot I kind of thought so too Vanessa would be the one pro at the table two three bet the most and Tony was dominated flop is eight a six two clubs selves pairs races but Antonio has flopped a monster draw and just like that Antonia goes from dominated to almost a coin flip there's no way he can get away from this and at the moment he's crushed selves fires out twenty three hundred and Tara's got a lot of experience with clubs right now he's calculating the cost of bottle service no this is a great spot for a raise though you're building a pot and raise he does the sixty two hundred and you could have the best hand already though it is tough to get called by worse there's almost no chance Vanessa fold she knows Antonio isn't likely to give her credit for a hand that's good she makes the call Antonio's got solid equity but he's gonna need some help turn Jack of Hearts Vanessa's still good now Antonio was the last aggressor so playing in flow would be for her to check she may not be interested in playing in flow that's out eighty two hundred this is a very good bet by Vanessa actually she knows she's likely to have the best hands so she's naming her own value and she's making Antonia pay to draw I don't see how Antonio can fold given that there's still a chance he has the best hand already he does call Antonio said he's done with the club scene but I bet he'd really like to see one now ten of clubs on the river Antonio makes his flush and boom goes the dynamite now it seemed from her lead out on the last Street that Vanessa had a pretty good idea Antonio is semi bluffing the flop so she's probably puking her guts out right now she checks it no question Antonio will bet it's just a matter of how much he thinks Vanessa will call and he thinks she'll call twenty six thousand two hundred dollars it's a big bet almost an over bet vanessa has to try to figure out if Antonio has the clubs or if he's just trying to rap the clubs this is a nuts her air situation and I think the flop raise and turn call by Antonio should be pretty big indications that he was on a draw still I could maybe see her making a frustration call she bluffed Antonio's something awful last night she knows he's a little salty over it man she plays good lays it down in Antonio's gonna drag the first pot of the night you could tell she wanted to say nice hand I said thank you sir come on Vanessa you can do it nice and there it is now don't you feel better Antonio will stack his chips as we take a look at the rules of the big game each table lasts exactly 150 hands the action preflop is pot limit then No Limit after the flop blinds are 2 and 400 with a $100 Annie all of which is paid by the player on the button and every player begins with at least $100,000 but can rebuy for up to 500 K and one change from last year this season that loose cannon doesn't have the option to return and boost his bottom line sorry Jared just one week in the baller sweet also quick word to the wise they definitely check the minibar Ace King for Antonio raises to 1100 Queen three four pull odd out Canon down Cassavetes and Greenstein quickly fold Vanessa ten seven suited Antonio raised Vanessa is in the big blind these two have been going at it all week she calls Vanessa and Antonio sitting in a tree BL you f ing what's my blue fing five ace Jack on the flop Vanessa's missed pretty hard Vanessa checks Antonio with top top he's likely to know he has the best hand bets out 2,100 she doesn't want to let it go but that's enough for Vanessa and his Fondy are he's gonna win a pot worth 50 100 bucks this round goes to and Tony you know tell me that one after I'll show you that one say Helen the one where she bluffed you 49-7 on the river now I know why Cassavetes asked for that salt it was to rub in Antonio's wounds by the way Nick's the Biggest Loser so far burn put a lot of Friedman with King five off suit yeah folds ace Queen four Huggins Jared's using the classic to chip pile approach and when I say classic I mean no one does it ever raises to 1,200 Cassavetes out Queen eight suited for Greenstein re-raises to 4,000 sells quickly folds buries nonchalantly attacking the loose cannons raise Antonio in the big blind with ten seven suited Antonio knows Barry loves messing with the loose cannon which is probably why he might be thinking about this ah but he lets it go disgustedly better with just over fifty hands ago and knowing that Barry likes to mess with loose cannons Jarrod's best move here is to make a four bet but I just don't think he's got it in him oh but he does Joe raises the 13 to definitely the right play cannon wins all it takes Sam here we go nice little pot for the cannon but he's still stuck over 20,000 bucks Kings in the muck lay down thank you knows where he is so the loose cannon pulls off his first four-bed of the session you're the man now dog find out if Jerry can keep it up and finally beat the big game [Music] don't go anywhere the action is just getting started [Music] welcome back to Las Vegas home of the big game let's check in on our loose cannon Jared Huggins even though Jared's down 21200 it looks like he may have finally changed years I guess more like he's shifted out a park through the first 75 hands Jared had tabled loads and vpip pfr and pots one which added up to a 33 K loss but since the halfway point jared is putting more chips in play he's boosted his vpip by 50% and almost doubled the number of hands he's raising preflop so far it's working jared has taken down four of the last 20 hands and appears to be loosening up what did you eat man I'm just kinda getting comfortable all right right it's the first 60 hands some spinach though one backdate have two spinach ready to go well it only took till Thursday ace 10 for Popeye Huggins this is a clear-cut raise ladies and gentlemen Jared nice introduction from the Hollywood guy for Trey for Vanessa facing a raise from Huggins and calls now as they know Jarrod's getting loose they're all gonna get loser as well that's why do you re calling with ace deuce and Friedman calling with Queen 9 do it Jarrod has the best hand but he's in rough waters with these three waiting to run him down it's almost kind of unfair four-way action to the flop 9 8 juice rainbow top hair for Friedman bottom for an Tonio who checks the LOD was not the preflop aggressor but he bets 3,000 he's leading out trying to scare off some if not all of this field Jared's got two overs hasn't been the type to float with nothing and he folds salps gone tough to fold a pair on the flop of pearl odds not likely leading it to four players with nothing Antonio lets it go and prahlada Friedman will drag a pot worth 80 400 bucks the donk bet takes it down about the pair top hair thumpers good well earlier this week we debuted an original rap from Prahlada goes by progress in the rap world the track is so hot he's created a remix enjoy [Music] [Applause] Jared nobody story you prepared this kid one time even was homeless now we got a shot at a whole lotta money I'm at the same table but it's tough to not root for the homie barry greenstein been around a long time author Robin Hood of poker Matt generous I love his style - too many seasons Vanessa ourselves Law School in a bokor black belt see you wanna fill out swimming sharks like Phelps she doesn't need the cards and he'll nick cassavetes ill director actor even writing movies ever heard of blow it all get a notebook I got mad respect maybe for his next film Oh give me a hug antonio esfandiari placed sickly he got tricks up his sleeve literally hopefully today I got the magic though make his chips vanish quickly you feel me oh then it's me aka progress the big game show I always do my best round up um test piece to the crew so we couldn't do without you alright that was the prod progress for even with big game wrap coming in at number one of one of the big game rap countdown it's 45 minutes till the top of the hour coming up next it's Scott Huff with the traffic and weather how's it looking out there huff thanks Joe actions on Cassavetes with seven five folds greenstein's out Vanessa's gone Antonio with King 9 offsuit and the button pretty abre just calls like that I like you I like turtles ten 9 offsuit the Friedman just calls did it start in the limping oh yeah the one thing going limping is one way to price in the loose cannon sure Huggins checks his for Trey Jared plays so tight these guys have resorted to limping to get him involved in pots they also known as the hands wayne he'll have to gamble more with marginal hands 1010 jack two clubs just trips for friedman pretty much a dream flop for him he checks it now he doesn't want to scare off the competition Kirk Huggins checks Jared in is one percent equity check looks like Antonio's gonna semi-bluff the gut shot that's 1200 I love it when the pros are trying to rope in the cannon and they end up getting caught in each other's nets so I Pro lad that wasn't a fishing reference no matter what Pro law does he's gonna look strong he raises to fourth raising might actually look weaker since a lot of folks were just calling that spots me cancer I didn't have a piece of that somehow Huggins is out now Antoniou knows prologue knows Antonio could have been betting any too and how strong a check raise looks in this spot an antonio reap ops it to twelve five alright so obviously per lot is unfolding which means these two options are call or for bet and it all depends on how narrow prologue thinks Antonio's ranges if prologue think San Antonio's ranges wide I want to get more money in now but if it's narrow like a hand that has a lot of equity against him he'll just call and play it safer looks like progress not interested in the safe route raises to twenty five thousand we're looking at a post flop for vet not all that common in this case a raise definitely looks more fishy than a smooth call I'm not sure Antonio can really call those since he's not even beating Perl odds ace high bluffs this has to be sending a pretty clear message to Antonio I'd be very surprised to see him continue with this hand it doesn't look to be going away it's a nice reverse tell from Pilates probably overjoyed to be seeing Antonio reaching for chips and Antonio calls with just a gut shot two rounds of betting and this pot is already at 50k to the turn seven of clubs neither one of these guys can like that card no one's got a club a lot checks could be a good card for Antonio to bluff at but Antonio will check it to the river seven of spades and pro lot is filled up well someone's not afraid of clubs anymore how big will the value bette be we know Antonio can't call much falada wants at least 50,000 more out of Antonio this is almost an over bet but pearl odds made it pretty clear that he's pop committed there's not a whole lot of bluffing that can be done and no more cards to come Esfandiari lays it down and prahlada takes down a nice sized pot from his buddy this round goes to the doctor well show it good for the game boy keep getting worse horse for you huh Cassavetes gets in one last needle which we're gonna put on wax roll out Freedman spirit rock take us out antonio esfandiari place sickly he got tricks up his sleeve literally hopefully today I got the magic though make his chips vanish quickly you feel me go then it's me aka progress the big game show I always do Papa's welcome back to the big game here's where we are after 100 hands Prahlada Freedman just took 26 dimes from antonio esfandiari and is now just 6,000 off the lead the loose cannon is 23,000 from even and director nick cassavetes continues to move in the wrong direction he's down over 85 K he's stuck in a little steaming but he's been taking it pretty well almost rattle rattle one time I might actually next or be I might I might actually it saved on a straddle my straddle in time my Huggins might straddle but cassavetes has put out a sleeper straddle which means it'll be live if no one raises before it gets to him you start first no either he fold is on its regular it's not the Mississippi I don't like that Mississippi not sure liberal vegan rapper poker players all that well-liked in Mississippi either eight five four Friedman folds Huggins King eight turnout huh he folds so it's live 805 800,000 Betty straddles now live he'll be last to act speaking of act and Cassavetes plays a total BA in the movie faceoff he's 4 for Greenstein raises to 3000 King five ourselves lets it go leave it to Barry to attack the dead money Queen seven of diamonds for the magician Antonio picked up on Barry's dead money attacked last time and last time he was out of position as well check out this neat little trick III bets with Queen seven two eighty four hundred presto change-o cassavetes now last to act with ace nine suited nuclear add-in Cassavetes has a decent hand and it's the best one but it's the kind you have no idea what to do with on the flop most of the time in general calling three bets with ace nine not a great idea and Nick and Greenstein both fold for betting might have been okay but foldings just fine to the magician not forced to reveal his tricks Antonio will drag the pot and pick up forty six hundred bucks and dead money knew Mary was using his image yup look at that intimidating hunk of poker player hole Antonio has certainly created an image for himself this week so far he's been bowling over the table with outright aggression that's right he leads the group and vpip PFR and three bet percentage his aggression hasn't translated into huge profit though through 101 hands he's only up 20k and now it's time to play the game that's sweeping the nation couch cannon that's where you at home get to play along by only seeing the loose cannons cards Jarod Huggins from Cali is our loose cannon he'll start with ace five of clubs alright with Jared's rep he should be able to just raise and take it right here should be a pretty easy couch cannon hand you're right so far Joey's raised to 1200 and Cassavetes and Greenstein quickly out action on selves who folds I mean look at that Rep Vanessa selves just folded her button Esfandiari calls out of the small blind and Friedman in the big blind lets it go you and me Jaron you got anything I got something okay I sort of believe him so it's couch cannons versus Street magicians two players to the flop ten six deuce rainbow check Antonio checks even though it's scary since he missed completely a seabed is definitely the way to go for jarred it will win so often especially with Jared's rep she bets it fire fire 2400 well antenna is not folding and he calls gulp I was really hoping Jarrod would win this with his rep I got nothing now helped JK turn four of hearts now with Jarrod's rep I'm going to assume Antonio does got something Antonio checks again here just picked up outs to a gut shot and Antonio's checked him twice even though I do think Antonio has something he should bet again so but he checks eight of diamonds on the river well it doesn't improve Jarrod's hand I don't like where this is heading Antonio fires out 10200 on the end this is an over bet which means it's a huge hand or it's nothing we know Antonio's capable firing the river with total air let's see if Jarrod looks him up all right he doesn't lays it down I like to lay down what Santonio got pocket eights he river to set I think Jarrod could have won if he'd bet the turn nice and thank you sir what'd I tell you bet the turn his reps tighter than David banners genes The Incredible Hulk no one you wouldn't like him when he's angry so the loose cannon makes the right fold but ends up $3,600 closer to permanently being the couch cannon Jarrett's quest for cash continues when the big game returns and don't forget all season long you can check out exclusive behind-the-scenes footage bonus hands and stats and clips our sensors have deemed too hot for TV on the website action continues with hand 103 and it'll be on Hollywood director Nick Cassavetes with five deuce bolts Greenstein ace five of diamonds here comes that old bear raises to 1500 helps us out Von D re king four off suit on the button seems like he's really got it in for Barry this week yeah shocker he re-raises to 4,400 Ace King suited for for a lot this is typically an automatic for bet went out of position but he just calls 4200 I would read a loose canon the riot act for that but for Pilate I'll just say he's mixing up his play Huggins folds a suited ace back on Barry who calls Barry may have folded had prolonged format and I don't want to say he's omniscient or anything but now he's got two guys on the hook and he's got him both dominated three of the best ever to the flop six for 10 two spades this Fon DRD with a pair but prologue with a huge draw looks like pearl odds gonna lead out at this fires out twelve thousand bucks typically a donk bet means you want everyone to fold or you want someone to raise green Stein's out of the way and it's not as spondee Ari Antonio has got a pair but even if he thinks his hand is good he's gonna hate just about every turn card and he gives up so Prahlada takes it down with a big bed after the flop winning a pot worth 26 - utilizing a play we don't see that off in the dog bet that's right - prelada it's made a habit of it this week so Maurice led into the preflop raiser 29% of the time the only other player employing this strategy is the magician who leads the table in donk bets he led in the preflop raiser 33% of the time it's not a typical play but so far these two have been using it to their advantage the term donk bet is a little misleading because it's not always bad except for when the loose cannon Hellmuth do it then yeah terrible it's 9 suited for the Canon same hand twice in a row gotta play at the 2nd time bomb suit to 1,200 Casa Betty's folds and green stands out 5 tray forceps we've got less than 45 hands ago so get ready for Jarrod's rep to be worth about as much as a gift certificate to Circuit City and there you go Joe a three-bet from selves the 4000 pocket tens for prelada this is a spot for a for bet generally but he just calls again he might be trying to price in Jarrod well it's back on Huggins Eddie folds typically that's a good fold but with time running out Jarrod's eventually gonna have to make a stand Vanessa's attempted isolating Jarrett has failed six deuce 8 rainbow gut shot for selves pearl odds still best and checks it pretty good flop for two tens I'm sure pearl odd would want Vanessa to continue check them out for me good play pearl odds been all speeches earlier in the week lately he's been giving it a rest but we definitely need some more for the home stretch and selves bets out 6,500 with her gut shot oh now you've done it you made her bet it oh I like these battles Friedman just calls Vanessa versus spirit Vanessa does not seem amused to the turn 9 of diamonds and Friedman checks again the nines no help to Vanessa and while it does complete some draws it's a pretty safe card for tens vanessa has now double gutted but I don't think betting here will do much good unless she's gonna triple barrel checks to the river here it comes 8 of diamonds Friedman still best may look like a nothing card but top hair and the flop is now beating Prahlada and he checks back on Vanessa well Vanessa's got 5 hi oh man Vanessa's so sick and she bets 16600 with the five high now I'm not the guy in the hand right now but to me this should be a pretty easy call even though top hair and the flops did end up becoming trips maybe / lots hesitating because of the play on the turn he could think of Vanessa were bluffing she would have triple-barreled and not checked the turn still it's Vanessa Selbst you have an over a pair of the board and you're getting better than two to one all comes down to how often Prolog thinks he's good here against Vanessa I'm the button I think he's good awfully often should raise huge I don't think you have any of that just play it cool Vanessa he doesn't have anything on you he's reaching don't give him anything you bring joy to my life hard to call with like Kings if I raise bigger not as far as it would be with Vanessa's hand not what Vanessa wanted to hear it looks like pearl odds counting out a call nice rack focus the Cassavetes direct this a LOD folds Wow the bluff works over there over there oh here's sicko I think she would about you bed two sevens day I know she might have value about two seven she also might have been bluffing with five hi big Lennon out of the monster of it on that's why your spirit you know spirit got bluffed I'd have paid her off with a nice yeah I think I speak for Vanessa when I say sofa as the cell pulls off yet another River Bluff that continues to baffle the boys club and take their money coming back to Las Vegas with more big game [Music] [Applause] [Music] welcome back to Las Vegas and the big game where we just saw Prahlada Friedman lay down the winning hand and a big pots of an SS helps Vanessa had the right read on the river and she explains her thinking as we take you behind the poker face so in this hand this is what you call a Loveleen war I only make this play because I know probably it's a very good player basically on the loose can't open and I had been super tight especially my buttons I was just getting literally no cards at all so I just decided that I was gonna raise this no matter what came and I was gonna bet the flop and probably take it down because the loose cannon has either been folding two rear aces or he would call and then check fold a lot of flops so it's very profitable spot so I raised prologue flat calls in the fickle T flat calls he's either got a hand like ace queen or a king or a hand like pocket tens pocket jacks pocket nine something like this he could also have a hand like king queen suited if he's really trying to mix it up but I thought more likely he wouldn't muck that hand and loose-cannon folds eight six to rainbow comes in the flop and I have a gut shot and that's it each X to me and of course this range is very strong here but I have two options you to give up and pray for a4 or try to take them off of what's probably a middle strength hand and I think I'm only trying to do this because I've actually been playing pretty tight and have a pretty tight image and while I did we raised the loose cannon he's still raised on the gun so my range for raising him is a little bit stronger than normal so I make a continuation bet and he calls the turn is a nine and he checks at this point I could keep betting but I think it's pretty hard because if I bet here first of all he could very easily have a set like a set of nine instead of a set of six it's something like this also I thought if he has seven sort ends there's a chance he might even turn it into a bluff because we're deep stacked let's try to take me off and like Kings races or Queens so I didn't want to risk that especially since I have five high so I thought it was mostly prudent to check I have a double gut shot after seven comes or a four comes I have a straight I thought I could represent something on the river and the river isn't boring 8 at this point he checks again his hand is pretty much face up as either pocket tens pocket sevens or ace high he could have a boat but it's unlikely especially when the eight comes to the river because now there's only one combination of eights and that's quads so I think most likely he's got a hand like tents this is where the leveling work comes in it looks like he has tents he knows that I know that and I know that he knows that so it really just comes down to does he think that I think he's gonna fold and I just thought you know if I bet something like eleven five twelve five and he would definitely just you know make a crying call but I just thought by making a sixteen thousand dollar bet it was you know close to the size of the pot and it really looks like I was pot controlling on the turn meaning I was checking with a hand like kings or Queens to try to get value from the river so I thought that that's what he would put me on and he folded and that was it [Music] typically I like to make jokes out of these but all I can say is Vanessa Selbst snows a lot about poker that move was the poker equivalent of bending it like beckham maybe I should have bet it I was like an idiot on me there then it'll meter wasn't pretty hi there yeah sometimes I'm trying to own it each other's day all right I like that statement uknown it's a word that knits use amongst themselves to empower each other and for non knits like Vanessa Prahlada and Antonia to joke around about it that's just really uncool Hector will start on the magician with bullets not impressed Penn & Teller can catch them in their teeth what's the other knitting it plays these aces raises to 1108 tray for Friedmann folds huggens the cannon a six chairs reaching for chips Oh spaghetti oh and that is a three bet from Huggins the 3,600 yikes snowmen for Cassavetes calls and two 9s for Greenstein what is going on here and he calls Williams use forceps that's not a pair old what a dream spot for Antonio Jarrod's three bet is terribad a six is not a rear a Singh hand and he cold three bed and under the gun razor and it's just become a four-alarm dumpster fire for Jerrod Huggins Esfandiari raising to 18,000 how much was the pup oh no it is 62 - why why is he asking that he should not be asking that Jarrod has one of the worst hands in the entire deck to beat aces Antonio must be using magic it's the only explanation and Huggins folds Knicks now in last place and getting bad odds the call by full he's done with it Barry smell you later what else is new so Barry wisely gets out of the way Antonia will pick up almost 12 K and dead money with his aces preflop oh yeah animal yeah why you tease me like that huh I thought about it did you want to go in with that one few raisins I don't know what I do right you have like what 67 DK states can we get a statistic on the number of pots of Antonio's won of course Vanessa anything for you as we take a look at the pots one percentage pie chart we see Antonio Esfandiari has the biggest slice taking down a whopping 39% that's 44 of the 112 hands we've played so far but winning pots doesn't always equal profit Vanessa you are still on top of the profit leaderboard even though you've won just 12% of the pots you should be up a lot more I think it should be what are you guys that's what I do first Vanessa Bluffs the chest hair off of him then she rubs it in his face my kind of woman Antonio hasn't dunked it all off yet he's up 47,500 and the action will start here on the director of Joe's favorite movie The Notebook I've actually never seen it but you're married so guaranteed you have nick cassavetes with Jack tennis bathes easy raise raises to 1,100 Greenstein out full the selves eight seven lets it go yes whoo you never have anything it's true really hard to make a five-floor for Antonio Minahan against you then you just bluffed me out of the pot three races can I close this river been easy bluff card you know it Friedman folds over to the cannon with Queen three suited folds Cassavetes calls 1900 Cassavetes has been taking a bath this week stocking very likely steaming to the flop five eight ten two spades Cassavetes with top pair and a flush draw Antonio with just bottom pair things are looking up for Nick any checks that's right keep looking like you're steaming Antonio with bottom pair would be the best hand fairly often bets 50 100 Nick might be think about a raise now race he was Antonio wondering just like me how much is it gonna be Nick raises to twenty one thousand one hundred it's a pretty big check race could be meant to look like he doesn't want to get called and it's probably in line with something someone who's steaming might do Nick trying not to give off and he tells may be giving off a huge tell angle shoot sixteen thousand hot castevet II that was pretty dirty I really think I have the best hand you don't but I want to be about it's your again Antonio folks you can wait outside with Corey Feldman I give it up nick cassavetes takes down a pot of over 33,000 while Antonio's piece of the pie gets a little smaller carrot Huggins piece still looks delicious to the pros we're coming back with more poker action right after this [Music] [Applause] welcome back to the big game Scott Huff alongside Joe Stapleton as we continue the action with hand number 116 poker legend barry greenstein looks down at King 10 raises to 1500 Queen 10 herself she's dominated and senses it she folds what a bizarre fold for Vanessa nice job spondee ari calls six Trey suited for prelada her lives on the button checking out Barry stack and folding loose cannon eight seven lets it go and Cassavetes will not play and Tony was drawing live but we know at least one Queens been folded me and the doctor do I get a book if I bust you bang he already did oh yeah four five king rainbow Barry with top pair and quickly fires out 2,200 it's a sea bet I don't think my bearing is so popular the first time I ever got the only time I ever got a book someone stole it right a break just like that just took it off the table it's just a hot item wonder if Barry's books at Antonio's should float with queen high turn Jack of Clubs is Fondy Ari with a pair now and Barry checks again puff is that why the copy the book he gave me said to Vanessa River King of Hearts trips for Barry great card for Barry both for the obvious reason and how it didn't change the board much for Antonio it's best out seven thousand man you really check a king on the turn he sure did twice a poker legend Mary I hate to pay you off you check the king on the turn I guess you deserve it but what can I do Antonio makes good calls 7000 and Barry shows in the bad news there you go very so excited to win a pot he can't even form a sentence why do I call when I know I'm beat so with that pot Barry adds almost 12,000 to his stack but he's still down over 52 dimes oh you wanted one round of Shadows yard no pressure but it's good for you yeah let's do round ass all right let's go start it we're on a straddle round a straddle round the shrouds everyone's doing it everybody's doing it I'm just lightening money on fire but whatever come on it's good for the game help starts in the straddle for 800 so actions on Antonio with pocket sixes just calls every time when Tony loses the thought around his cradles guess is just as Evan Friedman folds like it or the correlation action on the cannon with just 34 hands left to play King 10 off suit like to see Jarrod raise it up here he does have the button and he raises the 2,500 I like it kasib Eddie's mucks Greenstein out and selves in the straddle show yourself show me bolts that's lame you got to defend that straddle with six Trey Esfandiari has made the call and it's Huggins and a spondee re to the flop these two are a coin flip if we see all five cards deuce King seven two clubs cannon pair of kings and he's in position so that should help Tony I was supposed to check to the razor would rather try to intimidate the cannon bets 3300 he dunks it again just trying to take it down without a fight don't think it'll be so easy this time Huggins makes the call got everybody rooting for you and Tony oh I can see that and we're on your side buddy well I on your side buddy some cheerleaders out here or something between Jarrod's call on the needling Antonio majors shut it down from here turn deuce of Hearts all those millions of people at home he's our man who are you rooting for Amanda Jarrod okay Wow just that quickly check checks around Marcus are you rooting for next card please for the next card to come up Wow Tonio is all business river seven of diamonds spondee re checks the spots a little thin but you're gonna have the best hand so often that betting is still the optimal play turn buddy checks and the cannon shows the best hand and Antonio wants the dealer to deal the next card please I'll set up with the King town nice answer nice in so the loose cannon may have missed a bet on the river but still ends the night by scooping a pot of over 13,000 he finishes the session down twenty six thousand six hundred and will have just thirty three hands left try and turn a profit but speaking of profit Vanessa sells continues her reign atop the leaderboard she finishes the night up over eighty thousand dollars for shows down one to go our loose cannon Jared Huggins so has a lot of work left to do to turn a profit plus five ultra aggressive players continue their fight for nearly 1 million dollars in cash join us tomorrow night to find out how it all shakes down I'm Amanda Leatherman saying goodbye for now and remember if you've got the cash and the guts there's always a seat open at the big game good night everybody the way things are looking we could be gearing up for a very bloody finale but we'll wait am i bluffing and tomorrow night on the big game after waiting all week for a hand the loose cannon finally gets his wish hold on that's my man that's my man Joe look good
