Brandon Cantu Gets Tased

You can’t click this, it’s just a screenshot!

Brandon Cantu, one of the top poker players in the world, apparently ain’t quite as good at prop bets. Last year he attended the TASER Foundation Tournament and lost a prop bet to one Clonie Gowen. The tournament, by the way, raises money for a foundation that honors law enforcement officers lost in the line of duty. So the name kind of makes sense. But it got a lot more literal this year, when Cantu and Gowen met again, to settle the stakes of the prop bet.

By losing the bet, Cantu agreed to get tased. And luckily for all of us, Phil Helmuth happened to record the whole thing on video, for us all to enjoy. Watch Cantu get tased right here.

It’s about three minutes long and the build-up is a little lengthy, especially since it’s Helmuth narrating. But it’s worth it to see whether a millionaire pro player can maintain his poker face when he’s got 50,000 volts running through his body.
