Businessman Goes ALL-IN Then Leaves For Private Jet! Insane Poker Hand!

Bill Perkins played one of the most legendary poker hands in history on Poker At The Lodge. In a hand with Handz, he went all-in, but he was late for his flight. So he left the table and watched the results of the hand from his phone at the airport.

That's just what poker is like in Texas!
The stream regularly features Lodge owners Brad Owen, Andrew Neeme, and Doug Polk. Players like Rampage, Mariano, and Igor Kurganov has also graced The Lodge Live felt. And who knows? One day The Lodge may even host players like Daniel Negreanu, Phil Hellmuth, Phil Ivey, or similarly huge poker names.

@@rishabrege3479 In this scenario? Yes 💯 of the time.

[@rishabrege3479]

@@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.

[@niercyrian8573]

@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.

[@JayMaverick]

If you're able to leave $500k on a poker table to a friend while you catch a private jet, you've made some correct decisions in life.

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?

[@MrBeatboxmasta]

@@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.

[@drew9738]

Maybe he knew his opponent was going to take a half hour to make a decision.

[@w1ldwesty]

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.

@@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.
