HIGH STAKES Heads Up Showdown: Doug Polk vs Bill Perkins
Ойын-сауық
This heads up battle was one for the ages. Negotiations, massive pots, huge swings, and $700,000 on the table. When Doug Polk issued a $100,000 open challenge to the world, Bill Perkins immediately accepted. Within two days they were at The Lodge for a high stakes Texas Showdown. Here are some of the biggest pots and most thrilling hands from their session.

One day The Lodge may even host players like Daniel Negreanu, Phil Hellmuth, Phil Ivey, or similarly huge poker names.

I love how Doug is so curious how many of the numbers were calls. Wondering how badly did he get screwed there. That reveal by Bill was hilarious. Perfect comedic timing by Bill. I love it. Both these guys are great at a table together.
Bill has come a long way, its nice to see him playing well.

He paid for that education, that’s for sure. Sitting with crushers for so long and punt after punt. He still isn’t great but he is pretty good. Wouldn’t want to play him for stacks because he will put you in the blender. You have to be willing to call light against him and know it could be real swingy

I love this video old school poker brought me back to 2008
"Voted most likely to call" and "All of them were calls" lmao what a stream. laughed my butt off.
Does Upswing Poker's heads up course teach me how to constantly outflop my opponent?
Anyone thinking poker isnt alive and well just read some of the comments, these guys probably in your local 2/5 game, better get the car started

Food for thought: Both Perkins and Airball are energetic, boisterous, very splashy, and loud`ish. Which one would most people rather watch?
I love the "call straight fuck" sequence!

Looks fun, but heads-up against Doug is probably -EV for just about anyone else. Were there rules in place that they had to announce all their action? Guessing so.

I think they just did it to make it easy on the dealers
I think you two and Jungle are the most studdliest fuckin players, absolute units.
All Doug has to do is hit a miracle ace on the river to get bailed out and then get pocket kings vs AK heads up and then flop trips playing 6 high... This is what top level pro poker looks like
How does AK run into KK in a heads up battle 😂
2:10 one of the best suck-outs you can get, i guess. You pay the man and you move on with zero regrets, literally! Just nothing you can do... Only a fool wouldn't call there.
I hate they way people pick up chips now ... who started this?
Numbers between 1 and 7 are 3 evens and 2 odds. So it's a 60/40 decision?

Total punt, why do that when your beating the guy with value bets and letting him bluff. Maybe if the hand is not four bet and you can over bet river it works often enough, even then seems unnecessary.
Is Doug still married? Or us she the most understanding wife ever or its fine while the money is rolling in 😂😂
Is this real money?
Bill only won $29k?

Is the new style of poker to call and rarely raise. Everytime Doug has a good hand on flop he calls and doesn't raise. Slow play city.
