Having now finished episode 4, imma go out on a limb and say this may be the worst an LC has played. In fact, it may be the worst performance by any player on TV I've ever seen (Arnold Thimmons, Jamie Gold and Jennifer Tilly all raise their hands). He is just s***, plain and simple.

Yeah, I hate to say it 'cause Jared is such a nice guy, but this has been a painful week. In my opinion, the previous worst on this show was Elizabeth Houston (also a very nice person). Maybe Leo Durocher was right in his famous quote.

Also, I wonder if Huggins is strictly an online player. Previous Loose Cannons at least claimed to have some live experience, and a few backed it up with an overall "table comfort."

Barry's answer about the LC's play was quite diplomatic, and it raised a good point. He said Huggins played like "a typical Loose Cannon" -- weak/tight early, then waiting until the end to mix it up. As a result, the LC never gets credit for a hand down the stretch.

In contrast, Gonzales Cannon splashed around early when opponents assumed he must have had strong holdings. Then when he finally got caught bluffing, he switched to a relatively solid style. I'm surprised more LCs don't employ a similar tactic, given the stereotypical table image they inevitably put forth.

The last episode is awesome. Won't say why yet 'cas it would be spoilers, but really enjoyed watching it, although there was one disappointing moment.

I watch off the PS website. If we do get it on TV, it isn't as early as the stream goes up.

If he didn't have a 2+2 following...I'm sure one of the pros would of beat him up a lot more then they did.

He played one hand well where he 4bet AQ...but it was at a point where his stack basically played the hand.
