The Biggest Pot in American TV Poker History! Eric Persson vs Patrik Antonius 

Literally nothing. This is the pinnacle of poker highs lol

What about the 600k he almost guaranteed to win for being the biggest winner?

not just in poker, in the whole world 😂

patrik is always rock solid, remember when he called phil laak with 104 of spades? but when eric says all in you can see patrik's anxious, he knows hes gonna call and the money means something to him.

@@bipolarpunt5721 They played for 2 days with barely any action. Persson finally had to much coke and blew up and now we have the winner. I doubt there will be a pot half that size again.

This guy should not be in these games

Pure not funny!

It was funny but I feel bad for him. You could see how nervous he was throughout that hand.

@@johnsnakes6125 Why not?He is the reason this games are running.Even other amateurs want to get free money.

@@user-ly5oo2hd7phe’s not even a poker player. Just donkey fun player. Learn more.

Can't stand him either👍😎

Same. He's such a tool.

He was actually clearly nervous, never seen him like that before

@@tapatapaz I actually think he was so surprised and like confused not nervous. Although who knows… Eric’s line made NO sense. He either had a weird nutted hand or absolute nothing…

eric makes the gsme actually entertaining. some other just sit and show nothing, so boring

Eric has massive bully energy. Having been bullied a lot as a kid, I can spot it a mile away.

@@ligafftheindifferent3495 The only lovely thing about that is he gives Helmuth a show for his mouth :P

He can afford it. CLEARLY

🤣🤣🐡🐡

And that's the thing about him. When he loses it all, and he will, he won't have anything but the memory of his money as his best friend.

He really is! Never looses his cool , never complains, never berates other players, just an absolute legend of the game!

Not to mention notoriously runs bad in big spots

I've been watching Patrik Antonius play poker since 07' the most relax dude at the table 💯 of the time.

the only player I'd rather see in Persson's chair is Hellmuth, but I'm very happy to see Persson lose this hand.

Was about to write this comment.

Patricks a G

old school. Cool as a cucumber

Still a crazy call with top pair and flush draw.

High limit stud 😂

@@josephdale69not as crazy when you consider it’s against Eric. Would’ve thought about it way longer against most other players and folds to a few. Eric is a snap call though.

That’s exactly what I was thinking .. about him playing 8s full or 3s (quads) like that. Only a super amateur player would play it like he did .. Eric likes to bully and he’s been caught so many times 😂😂😂

Eric thought Patriks down bet on the turn was KK or QQ. Honestly patrick should check the turn imo. But it worked out perfect this time.

@@mikegoodwin5951the down bet is genius. Applies pressure to 8x qq, jj,1010, 99s and makes Eric spazz out with worth flush draws.

Lol seriously wtf is he wearing

Haha didn't think about that

gold

that's like that football team that went for the two point conversion at the end of the game when they were 57 points ahead

I don’t think they can run it 2 times because of the side bet

Perrson is too dumb to realize it was probably a joke to rub it in.

What combos?He has no clue what he is doing.Patrick click back on flop was also weird tho.Why would u go nuts with Q9hearst on this board.Even him playing lots of hand is unlikely he has a 3 and even if he has it he migh slowplay it decent amount.

Absolutely idiotic to work as hard as he does and get so greedy.

I can hear him screaming right now!!!!

I know exactly how Eric Feels. I did this once in a $1 - $2 for $100.

@@williambenson8641 I don’t think Eric cares about the money. Think poker is more an ego thing for him.

It’s not just you, Eric is a fool. Not even smart enough to know he’s drawing dead when Antonius shows his hand. I laughed.

nah, most of us probably love it. He is a terrible human being imo.

More money than I've ever had or seen in my entire life 😢

Antonius doesn't get intimidated. He only plays logically and leaves the emotions at the door.

I’m dead 🤣🤣🤣

he stopped talking REAL quick lol

lol not much to say after that i suppose

Set almost a million on fire. I’ve only seen the Joker do that, but this guy is a bigger clown.

@@timpayne1057 why is this Persson so serious? 🤡

Right dude believed he still had outs...NOT drawing dead 👻

That was definitely the best part of the whole delicious thing………

LOLLL I didn't pay attention to when he said that 🤣🤣

Almost

Almost

Eric is a truck, but I think that was him laughing. Minus him, there is a lot of class ay the table.

Don't laugh at the fish.

I had to watch it 10 times to get the magnitude of that pot and hands.

@Mark Vanderkam Wow that’s quite the theory in 🤡🌍 anything’s possible

He hasn’t seen Patrick’s cards smart guy when he saw he says I’m drawing dead

Lol is Schadenfreude actually a english word?

@@janheubeck8083 it’s a German word.

He's close to the number 1 spot in all time losses.. wtf you on about?

@@JSp8 is this true? I can’t find anything online confirming that at all

@@JSp8 I do not know where you get those numbers. He is probably the best all around cash player in the World.

@@jasonkiselis2866you're right, i'm wrong. My apologies.. I've muddled up Patriks career with Gus Hansons. As you were

@@Alkcjebbzhybaxbbush Nah i was totally wrong. I was thinking of Gus Hanson. My bad✌️

Hard to scare the nuts.

Nuts?!?! Do you know what full house is?!?!

Once upon a time, I saw this one guy at 10NL blasting off pretty wildly too.

how bad is this play?... can you put in words? I cant ...and I speak 4 languages

@@razersedge2k974 shhhh don't expose me

@@eastyyy22 I think his name was SneakyBucky

Pretty sure Triton has had much bigger pots

What are you talking about?guy lost 12M$ since he is active on high stakes scene😂 He keeps pushing it in with inferior odds,how is that a goat?

@@hancocksucks3300 lol he lost the biggest pot ever in US live stream history, only to lose an even bigger pot a couple weeks later - thereby breaking his own record and retaining his status as the 🐐

@@sportspokerguy3506 you clearly don’t understand the term “goat”

@@hancocksucks3300 brother I’m being funny, you don’t understand sarcasm

@@sportspokerguy3506 the fact that you think thats funny is funny to me, so you kinda succeeded

Yeah it is like Jamie The fish Gold is back in town.

People said he's boring to watch because he doesn't play big pots - hes way smarter than that. He waited patiently for this spot.

Patrick didnt hesitate very long. Against robi he folds. Against the fish perrson it's a insta call

yea im thinking his strategy is working for him. just wait for the biggest idiot to make big mistakes

@@Zenigundam Me: Sees clip headline. Also me: "Hahaha...Pearson got stacked."

Yeah. I would be very careful with Patrick

Patrick read that dude like a book.

Eric Persson was also part of this pot. He made historical punt.

I guess when there’s already 900k in the pot it was a relatively easy call

I mean if u fold this against crazy player like person u should not sit at the table.Even against a 3 u have some outs and 3 is unlikely and person will have full house close to 0% of the time here.

@@user-ly5oo2hd7p right persson isn’t jamming a boat there, he’d want Patrick to get there if he has hearts so he would’ve just called

It wasn't likely Eric had pocket Aces. Eric did not reraise preflop. Patrick only pause because of the amount of money but it was an easy call. I would call that even if its means walking home a hundred miles.

This format has a 20 second clock

best comment on here, love when he loses

Sure do too!

@@narele25now that he lost all his chips, I'd agree with you lol

agreed

@@EZ_Case his game hasnt evolved since then either...

Right! Must be nice

As we say here in Finland, IMHO his face a bit like a "peura ajovaloissa (in ajovalot)"...

His wife is middle eastern too. We mideasterners are proud of who our women are choosing.

He is OG. There’s not many players with his longevity in high stakes cash games. In the same league with Ivey, Negreanu and Dwan

Context on the side bet please

@@jaimeramirez2412person who wins the most money during the session wins $600k . Each player put up $100k

Eric looks c👀ked, all speedy like.

And lose it he did…

Did he lose a huge pot?

you're right specially with the nuts poker face in history Patrick antonios

He's one of my favorite players to have on these games

I’m sure your mom loves him as well 😉

The modern Bill Perkins (The Businessman), only not as bad.

@@mrheckles6076 I think Bill would be a significant favorite in nearly any full ring cash game or especially if he and Persson played heads up. Not saying that even as a diss on Eric, but Bill has put in a ton of work on his game with very solid coaches.

Oh, would you of?

Persson would have snapped asked Run 5x🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

​@@iLLicitNz78OMG 😂😂😂 patrick is too classy but can you imagine if he agrees to 5 times, then nobody says anything, they actually start, and after the 1st one comes persson finally realizes he's drawing dead 😂😂

Eagles could of used him in the Superbowl.

Yeah, mother of all punts.

Update 2: Patrik 4bets (JJ) pre to 100k, and gets 300k 5bet from Robl (KK). Patrik folds. Patrik back down to starting stack

@@blank5210 insane

This is the type of player anyone at practically any stakes you would wanna play with

@@xtremev1 Yes sir!

LOL yes you are the scrap master indeed.

Yes both what he had left and $67K are scaps

@@MrSTYLORICAN love me some scaps

Scrappy Do where are you?

Congrats to Eric for losing all that much money 😂

You're 100% spot on and he did the same crap on day 1/2 which I'm sure everyone watched later. Patrik knew he had him

Yeah spot on analysis there, and right to the point. Another tell was steam coming out of Persson's ears. The way he handled chips, jerky movements, leaned forward.. He looked like he was on full tilt.

Agreed

What pot online was it? How much and against who?

you got too much time on your hands if you know this stuff

Against Isildur1 in Omaha, Isildur had just a draw

@@noelsen1337 I was going to say viktor blom. Aka isildur! It was for around a million wasn’t it?

It's all over baby!

Agreed , do you feel the voice . The release was Persson show q9 hearts … sweets . Rack and cash out , the pots is a wsop or wpt title

He dosen't look nervous to me, ez call... 🤣🤣🤣 for 2milli

Yeah. All in with almost a million. Insane

He is getting old that is why. Young Antonius was more of a beast.

well its a call of half a million with two pairs. eric could have A8 easily, a surpris set of 88, very unlikely quad 3's. lets pretend this is real money.

Don't be a hater.

@@okiepokertraveler1718 The thing is, Persson is often very nasty and unpleasant, and invites hate. If you don't want haters, don't be hateful.

@@tgbedini Problem with being a hater is it effects you, not them. Whether they deserve it or not you're the one that gets the poison, not them. Hatin is bad.

@okiepoker …. Don’t be telling other people what they like or don’t like ….

It was a MATHEMATICAL CERTAINTY that Perrson would stack off said it 5 times yesterday. Only wish I had the roll to play w that donkey I'd take all his chips everytime. He's a fish

He was way too aggressive. To me it was similar to the way many bots play. He deserved to lose that pot.

i do not know anyone who folds there , even if he did have a set which was unlikley , you had outs

@holdem5180 about the only thing you can realistically put Eric on that is beating ahkh on the turn is exactly ad3d. theres no other a3 suited combos available. 88 I guess. After the turn A Patrik is beating everything else he could have and its Patrik so he knows it. I don't know how much poker Eric has played. What I do know is I use to watch Patrik go at fearlessly on full tilt back in the day. After Patrik reraised him and all Eric did was call is when Patrik ruled out the boat combos he could have. Its as if Eric got offended by Patriks raise pre. Like who does this guy think he is kinda thing. Definitely the wrong guy for Eric to try and muscle. I just don't know how he doesn't know that.

Are you npcs self aware?

Phil already got deep-donged for 400k in 2 different high-stakes cash games this week he can't afford it.

or that batman guy with the needle cards.

Ya know sometimes you do have to play the cards.

@@sethiddings7293 what you on about was one of the biggest punts of all time snap fold on the turn

I mean even the fishest rec player wouldn’t fold AKs with nut flush draw and a TPTK

But would he keep snap raising like that if he did?

Against a guy who has an isildur's complex? No problem calling. If the opponent was a professional he might think better, but maybe he'll call anyway, who knows

Theres only one combo of Ace3 suited… cant be scared of the monsters under the bed or u wont be profitable. He’s too experienced for tht

@@elijahhudson2206he called a 4 bet out of position preflop with q9. He lead out every street and they are playing as deep as it gets. Obviously Antony made the correct call but it was an extraordinary call and not obvious. How you can disagree with that is beyond me.

@@robinchen9694 true that is suspicious but it is just as likely he is trapping as bluffing with those actions. That’s why I’m so impressed by the deeeeeeep call by A.

Analysis will come, im sure

There won’t be any cause I bet patrik can’t stop laughing himself doing it

It wasn’t “insta” it was after the turn.

@@williambenson8641 you know what „insta“ mean…?

@@williambenson8641 I don't think you understood my point, but thanks
