The Loose Cannon has the opportunity to keep anything he wins above the initial $100k buy-in given.

Week 1 - Episode 1 of The Big Game featured Daniel Negreanu, Phil Hellmuth, Doyle Brunson, Phil Laak and Tony G. The Loose Cannon role was taken by Ernest Wiggins, who is a 35 year-old businessman from Washington, D.C.
