On Saturday night, several players at the table I joined were real loose cannons. They can be fun to play against, but you don't want to make a habit of it. Also, you don't play want to play lengthy sessions against them. The biggest problem with loose cannons is that every now and then, they're actually going to have a hand. The longer you play against them, the more likely they are to get that hand, and hurt you with it. The best way to play against them is to wait until you get a reasonably good hand, bet it, and be prepared to go all in with it. You don't need a premium hand to beat a loose cannon; you only need a reasonably good one. Saturday night, I called an all in bet from a loose cannon to go all in myself on hand 68. I won a pot worth $52,572 with two pair, kings and tens. The "loosie" only had a high card ace after failing to make his gutshot straight draw. I got out of Dodge the next hand.
