Star-Studded Lineup at the Table
The lineup for the new season promises an immensely captivating dynamic. Leading the charge is PS ambassador Jason Koon, currently third on the All-Time Money List and considered one of the best players of today. Supporting him will be Shaun Deeb, a two-time WSOP Player of the Year titleholder, alongside the seasoned Matt Berkey.
The table will surely be stirred up by businessman and regular high-stakes stream participant Randy "3Coin" Sadler, as well as a special guest from the UFC — star MMA fighter and poker enthusiast Sean O'Malley. While O'Malley is not a complete newcomer to the poker world, he'll now have to prove he can deal out blows just as effectively with cards in hand.
An integral part of the Big Game format is the "Loose Cannon" role. This involves an amateur player who is provided with a $50,000 buy-in by the casino. In the third season, Canadian Andy Taylor will take on this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
Taylor, who runs a property maintenance business in Toronto and, along with his wife, manages a nonprofit for young athletes, will have exactly 150 hands at his disposal. If he retains any profit over the initial $50,000 after playing this many hands, he gets to keep the entire amount as his winnings. However, facing players like Koon and Deeb, he's in for one of the toughest challenges of his life.
