ShareBill Perkins pulled off an incredible bluff against poker legend Bobby Baldwin during a recent episode of High Stakes Poker on PokerGO. The game, which featured notable players including Jennifer Tilly and Antonio Esfandiari, was a $200/$400 No-Limit Hold'em 6-max with a straddle to $800.
In the hand, Baldwin straddled to $800, and Perkins raised it up to $3,000 with 10♣6♣. Baldwin 3-bet to $9,000 with J♠J♥, and Perkins made a loose call in position, building a pot of $19,000.
On the flop of 10♠8♠2♥, Perkins flopped top pair but was still way behind Baldwin's overpair. Baldwin went for a big bet of $15,000 into $19,000, and Perkins called, bringing the pot size up to $49,000.
The turn brought the 5â™ , completing the flush draw, and Baldwin fired a small bet of $20,000 into $49,000. Perkins then raised to $60,000, turning his top pair into a bluff, trying to represent the flush. Surprisingly, Baldwin folded quickly, and Perkins won a $129,000 pot with his well-timed aggression.
