The Big Game Season 2 Week 3 - With Jared Huggins

July 20, 2011
The third week of the PokerStars Big Game has been released to PokerStars.tv. This week's loose cannon is the highly anticipated Jared Huggins, the homeless poker player, who was helped by Daniel Negreanu and the whole poker community to be on the show. But can he change his life?
The PokerStars Big Game

We wrote about Jared Huggins several times already; his story shook the poker community last fall. Last February, he lost his $100 bankroll in a heads-up match and went totally broke. He started to dance for money, and give free hugs on Venice Beach, Florida. He posted his story on a popular poker forum, where the users helped him out. In fact, Huggins could rent a room and start over. Daniel Negreanu was rather supportive with Huggins, his word definitely helped Huggins getting in the show.

The opportunity is definitely there, we'll see how he exploited it. His fellow players were Barry Greenstein, Vanessa Selbst, Antonio Esfandiari, Prahlad Friedman and Nick Cassavetes, famous Hollywood writer and director.

Enjoy!
