GSN recently announced it will begin tapping season 7 of it's popular High Stakes Poker series this Nov. 18-20th. We suspect some of the regulars will show up, such as Doyle Brunson, Phil Ivey, Phil Laak, Antonio Esfandiari, Eli Elezra, Tom Dwan, Patrik Antonius and Barry Greenstein. Hopefully we'll see the return of Andrew Robl, David Benyamine, Phil Galfond and Phil Hellmuth, just to name a few. We're unsure as to weather nor not Daniel Negreanu will return due to his affiliation with Poker Stars "Big Game" which we imagine is competition for the HSP series. We'll try to tweet out some info from the big guns themselves and update with more info soon. Have fun riding the waves and enjoy the poker surf!
-COWABUNGA!

Rumming around! 10 Cane Rum
What's up drinkers! It's Johnny Kahuna here and the guys here at CowabungaPoker.com let me have a quick minute to tell you about my favorite rum and what I did. So here it goes.
Ok I know it's turning fall and all but I had to get out of the states for some warm weather. So me and a buddy flew down to Aruba for some fun in the sun. Soon as we landed we were feeling good, cause we
brought a case of 10 Cane Rum with us and had already cracked it open. I headed for the beach while Drew hit the local market for some food to grill out. I found a cool ass spot down from a resort and dug out a pit for some coals and some grilling. We gained the attention of some ladies who were 10's in their own right. We opened up the case and started the unofficial Johnny Kahuna 10 Cane Rum Party and believe me it was a throw down! We grilled lobster, corn, potatoes and a mass amount of veggies. One of the girls asked "what do you like so much about this rum" I looked at her deep tanned face and said "babe, it's like they took fruit dipped it in caramel and honey and heated it up for us" she smiled back and said "yeah, you're right. so you coming to dance." 'Hell Yeah' I thought to myself and dance we did. Afterwards we all played in the ocean then dried off around the burning coals. I would tell you more but there's just to much to tell. Just know it was a blast! and now you know my favorite rum. See you in the surf and at the poker tables, cowabunga!
