@@niercyrian8573 I would probably crumble based on the stakes and the game. Plenty of overpairs, the obvious straight and the unlikely trips, even full houses at play where the opponent may have flopped a set. I’ve had these situations happen to me in lower stakes when I just refused to fold. I learnt to fold more in these situations giving my opponent more respect but perhaps I’m not at that level of poker thinking yet.
@Rishab Rege Maybe you're playing at a higher level than your opponents. In lower stakes, the best strategy is A.B.C poker. Each hand is irrelevant from all other hands because you can't expect your opponent to take into account all the other variables. I've witnessed all ins with a duce 3 flush when the opponent can have and does have all the other flushes. Most players in lower stakes are just clicking buttons.
I want to know how many poker players that have ever existed in history shoved all in, for over 150K+ pot, with nothing but air, and then leaves for a flight BEFORE HIS OPPONENT MAKES A DECISION..... AND WINS! Only 1 Bill Perkins. This is LEGENDARY.
This realm is all new to me so bill went all in 500k to win 150k ? Why couldn’t he just do like half ? Or 150k is it because he knew they wouldn’t go all in as well what if someone went 600k but had stronger hand?
@@horizonfan He couldn't raise any less than all his chips because Handz could have raised him and automatically won the hand because Bill was no longer there to respond. When you are not there to respond to the action in a timely manner, your hand is dead. By going all-in, your hand cannot die because there is no further action you can take.
To all those saying Bill was out of order leaving and the table talk whilst Handz was making his decision was OTT. While technically you're probably right you gota remember that these are loud, splashy, chaotic games and shinanigans are to be expected and if you sit down at these tables you know what to expect. Which is what makes them great fun to watch. I don't think anyone at the table had any issues with what happened, even Handz.
Genius play by Perkins! He knew Handz would not risk calling and losing against an ABSENT player, that would turn into a meme for the ages. Truly genius!
this infers that u actualy belev for one second that the ladder is worse than being bluffed off of a fucking over pair by an absent bill perkins... wow im not sure what si worse but im most certain that it feelsbadman
@@bash547 are you dense? Its wayyy more embarassing to be the first in poker history to actually lose on an all in against an empty chair and be cleaned out of your ENTIRE stack, than to fold and lose to a bluff which is mild in comparison. Both are bad but going broke in this situation is more embarassing of the two. He was simply implying that Handz would not risk that chance and be a meme for eternity in case he did lose.
@@Arthur_StJohn He’d won if he called so it was a mistake to be TRICKED by a bluff. He made the wrong decision. You must think it was less embarrassing to fold to Miss Finland too.
this is most ever so certainly one of the best streames hands in history of nlh poker....bill perkins just cemented his legacy as a poker fucking BOSS!!!
If you think about it, it's a genius move. He leaves and puts all the pressure on Handz. He needs to make a big decision while everyone around him is talking about this unusual event. Handz is probably thinking " Am I actually going to lose all my money to a guy that is not even present at the table".
I know we can see the hol cards, but really try to imagine getting stacked by a person that leaves the building. Let's say he has the 6 by chance or pocket 3s. Jams and opponent calls to see all their chips being moved to a lockbox. GOAT level gross
@@RobertJones-xr2cq I review that hand as if I was there and maybe the 9 turn scared Perkins posing if he had top pair on the flop but even at that he should've played it like his opposite had A/K so a bet on the turn would've made sense for Perkins thinking he six was golden? Pocket 10's should of made a bet on the turn for protection yes?
First off, this is a hilarious move by perkins and I love it. I know the lodge is a private club with it's own rules. But in general, is a player allowed to leave the table while in a hand? If so, y don't people do it more often so others can't get read off of them?
While this was entertaining, if you leave the vicinity of the table, your hand should be dead. Live poker is a social game. Bill had the opportunity to read his opponent during his bet, his opponent didn’t have that same opportunity. Every player should have the right to read his opponent after his opponents river shove.
This has to be the weirdest flex ever 😂😂😂 sick level btw He's looking half arsed about losing and doubling villain up, but he could easily just have a monster. I'm surprised his hand wasn't ruled dead... get Matt Savage on this 🤣
