Bill Perkins Rides the Rollercoaster

Nível 10 : 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante

Bill Perkins is always one of the most fun players to watch take on a High Roller field, but even by his standards for the spectacular, the last two hands were dramatic!

First, Perkins was all-in pre-flop with the best of it, holding against his opponent Isaac Haxton's . The board looked to be giving Perkins all the money but had a sting in its tail as it came to give Haxton Broadway.

In the very next hand, Perkins got his remaining 72,000 into the middle pre-flop with and was called by Sergi Reixach, who held . The flop of gave both players a sweat and the cards were slid into position, but the turn and river saw Perkins hold on.

"Admit it, you thought quad queens were coming there, didn't ya?" asked a friend of Bill's hopes in the hand.

"What a couple of hands. I felt sure they wanted rid of me when he flopped a set, but I got one too, it's all good."

Colman and Negreanu Renew Acquaintance

Nível 10 : 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante

Dan Colman and Daniel Negreanu know each other well, but only at the poker table. They met in one of the biggest heads-up clashes of all-time when Colman bested Negranu in winning the Big One for One Drop. The difference between the two gentlemen's results was stark. Negreanu won $8,288,001, a fine prize, but Colman reeled in $15,306,668, the second-biggest prize in live tournament history.

So far, since Colman was moved to his table, Negreanu has been on a slightly downward curve, while Colman is growing his stack.

The first hand between the two came when on a board of saw 55,000 in the middle and Colman's bet of 36,000 was enough to take it down.

In the next hand at the table, Negreanu made it 17,000 from the hijack position. Colman raised to 50,000 and took that pot away too.

Advantage Colman for now, but Negreanu, just as in 2014, will not give up easily. The Canadian does have the lead in the All-Time Money List.
