PokerStars.net\’s The Big Game

New show coming soon

A poker show for the hardcore fan, with a touch of game-show whammy thrown in. To be seen on Fox Sports. That\’s the word coming from Daniel Negreanu:

Buy in: $100,000 minimum $500,000 maximum
Blinds: $200-$400 with a $100 ante (the button will ante for the table)
Format: 6 handed (occasionally that may change) pot limit betting before the flop, no limit hold\’em after the flop.

The Twist: One of the six players at the table will be an online qualifier, \”The Loose Cannon,\” who\’ll get a chance to sit in the game with $100,000… and it\’s a freeroll! Well, not entirely. The Loose Cannon must play the full session, and he can keep anything that he wins. If he loses, say $500 or $50,000, he gets nada.

I\’d Tivo that.
