Bill Perkins Rides the Rollercoaster
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."
