High-Stakes Poker: Bill Perkins and Victor Malinowski's Epic Showdown

In late August, Chinese players reportedly disappeared from high-stakes cash games due to deposit issues, and Bill Perkins took over as the center of the game. Perkins played a short session at $200/$400 with Stefan Burakov, Kirill Zaerko, and a group of American MTT players.

Victor Malinowski joked with Jake Schindler about leaving the game and expressed his willingness to show his hands on showdown if certain conditions were met. He also shared his betting habits, including always placing at least 50% of his bankroll on every fight involving Habib Nurmagomedov.

During a heated exchange, Malinowski proposed a high-stakes challenge to Schindler, involving playing on two tables while he continued drinking. Schindler declined, and Malinowski offered $2,000 to anyone willing to participate. The offer was ignored, and Schindler left shortly after Perkins.
