PokerStars Big Game 2010-09-21 The initial run of the PokerStars Big Game has come to an end, but more episodes are only a few weeks away. Week 6 featured another limp Loose Cannon, but the high-octane pros provided more than enough excitement. Undoubtedly the centre of attention was one Phil Hellmuth. The Poker Brat did everything possible to live up to his nickname, producing riveting entertainment in the process. The target of his vitriol was online sensation Dan %u201CAnsky%u201D Stern, who had Hellmuth totally on tilt. His antics are undoubtedly the most watchable of any of the best online poker sponsored players.
Sitting quietly in the midst of all this turmoil was Andre Capella, the inappropriately named Loose Cannon from Greenville, Tennessee. His tight calling style failed to invigorate the table or his chipstack and it would only take 88 hands to see him ousted from the Big Game. Like all Loose Cannons, he qualified by winning a free tournament on the PokerStars Download. The former racing car driver showed some signs of life early on, but had the wind thoroughly knocked from him by a Phil Hellmuth suckout. Holding J-J against the poker brat%u2019s J-8, he saw a blank flop, followed by runner-runner eights. It was the kind of hand that would have had Phil enraged had he been on the other end of it. Perhaps the Poker Brat needs to spend more time with a hand converter. Sadly Capella did not have the game to build his way back up from this setback. To be fair to the Loose Cannon, Lady Luck certainly wasn%u2019t on his side. He needed some cold hard poker tells to help him out, but they weren%u2019t forthcoming. His K-Q hit top pair on a board of K-6-4, as did Stern with K-10. His fate was sealed by a 10 on the turn and an all-in call, which resulted in Stern collected the entirety of Capella%u2019s stack. Even though they ran it twice, there was no river reprieve for the Loose Cannon. He%u2019ll was sent on his way, back to grinding PokerStars Bonus Code offers. Dani Stern was the big stack after all was said and done in Week 6, to the consternation of Phil Hellmuth. Phil couldn%u2019t handle losing a pot after having the best of it early on and began running his mouth in riveting fashion. A veteran of best US poker sites chat wars, Stern responded in kind and the two traded insults for a lengthy period of time. It didn%u2019t last for the whole session, with Hellmuth offer to buy Stern a conciliatory bottle of Dom Perignon. To liven up proceedings in the final few hands, host Amanda Leatherman produced a pre-bought bottle of the pricey champagne for Hellmuth personally hand over. As the credits rolled, the pair appeared to be patching up their differences. Proprietor of Daniels Room Poker and PokerStars talisman Daniel Negreanu was also on hand to stoke the fires of Hellmuth%u2019s tilt. He even provoked Phil to ask him, %u201CWhat have you ever done in holdem?%u201D to which to the witty Canadian replied, %u201Cnot that much.%u201D It seems fair to say that the four time bracelet winner has more claim that most to hold %u2018em prowess.
