Perkins Shoves On McDonald

Level 12
: 6,000/12,000, 2,000 ante
On the flop, Bill Perkins checked to Mike McDonald. McDonald bet 30,000, and then Perkins check-raised all in.
"How much is it?" asked McDonald, before being told it was 154,000 by the World Series of Poker dealer of the year Andy Tillman.
"If there was a hand I'm not supposed to bet, it's probably this one," said McDonald after a little bit of thought. The table responded with a laugh.
Perkins and McDonald went back and forth a little bit, mostly drawing parallels with this hand and the push-up bet involving the two from yesterday's play.
After a little bit more thought, McDonald gave it up, and Perkins was pushed the pot. He showed the for top two pair, and McDonald claimed he had pocket tens.
