Monchek and Wasserson played a record pot of $4.2 million on High Stakes Poker
Just two days ago, Eric Wasserson and Andrew Robl set a High Stakes Poker record by playing a $2,478,000 pot. Now Michael "Texas Mike" Monček has forced Wasserson to go even further. In a hand against him, $4,260,000 was at stake.

With 10♣️7♣️, Monček fired three barrels as a bluff, betting $1,600,000 on the river. This forced Wasserson to either go all-in or fold his flush. After a long think, Eric called anyway and took down the pot. This hand became the largest not only on High Stakes Poker, but in the entire history of poker streams and TV shows.

A bit later, Monček played the fourth-largest pot in High Stakes Poker history. Texas Mike, holding pocket kings, won a $2,337,000 pot against Andrew Robl, who had A♠️K♣️.

The game stream continues on the PokerGO YouTube channel.
