Rampage effectively demonstrates that high-stakes success hinges more on psychological stoicism than mere luck. His transparency regarding variance provides a sobering look at the discipline required to weaponize risk rather than fear it.

If I Call, I Win $750,000Added:
4 minutes in, we get involved when Peter puts in the $800 straddle, and I'm first to act with ace six of hearts on the button as I get settled in to play the highest stakes of poker all year. It folds around to Peter, who ends up putting in a raise again to 13,000. And well, Peter is known to be action here.
And let's start off with some fireworks.
I think my suited ace is good enough to be ahead sometimes against Peter. So, we're announcing those two magical words. And Peter snap calls. And just like that, a $100,000 pot has been born out of nowhere. No better adrenaline rush than rifling off $100,000, right? My heart is beating out of my chest. And this one would be the best momentum starter for the rest of the session.
>> Then I got him in the flip. You know, it was like the double >> basically a flip.
>> Yeah. Really happily added on to >> five.
Okay, five possibility of >> I asked for it.
>> Fiber picture.
>> A chop arises on the turn.
>> Rampage is going to win this one.
>> Just like that, I double up my buy in.
And honestly, leaving right now doesn't seem like a bad idea, but you just know that there will be a lot more action to come. And 4 minutes later, Nick raises up to 1,000. Mariano three bets to 3,000. And IPL ace king in the big blind. Yep, this is the action I'm talking about. I re raise to $10,000 and Airball goes all in. Mariano ends up folding and can we possibly just turn my $50,000 buy into $150,000 in just 8 minutes into the session? In a matter of 10 minutes, I've played over $200,000 worth of pots. Let's win.
>> Almost 100,000 in the middle.
>> After count for me now.
>> Keep counting.
>> No. No, no, I buddy.
>> No love for ace king on that flop.
>> Me and Mariana aren't kidding, buddy.
>> Air balls world.
>> We're just on the flop here. No turn has come out yet.
>> 471.
>> Yeah. Yeah. So 371 >> 371 more. 471 total.
>> Ah, [ __ ] me. I thought I got a discount.
>> What are you looking at the board for, buddy? No, no. The ones here doing >> Rampage needs an acer king to stack Nick airball.
>> That won't do. So airball doubles.
Rampage is back to where he started.
>> And I lose. And just like that, I'm riding the roller coaster of swings. I'm back to where I started. And it's like nothing even happened. It's clear that $50,000 in this game is being treated like peanuts to everyone. And I'm on a massive downswing. So 50k is actually so much money in real life dollars. But let's hunker down and let's hope to survive this insane trip we're about to go on. And that time might be now. I pick up a monster. Ace king. Peter puts in the 1,600 straddle, which is massive, and I raise to 4,000. Britney raises to 23,000. And well, it's time, especially with a massive straddle in effect. I announce allin, and Britney snaps.
Here's a $157,000 pot. Let's just play for a down payment of a home. Now, >> Rampage has Britney dominated.
No help for Britney.
You could chop it with a four.
>> Ace King. And >> this time, Ace King will win an all-in.
I'm suddenly sitting with $164,000 in front of me in $110,000 profit. Now, these swings are getting a little crazy, but I'm ready. Playing with house money. Peter Airball. Mariano and Jeff are all players that aren't afraid to play milliondoll pots. So, in the next hand, action folds to Peter now in the big blind, raising it up to 4,000 on my $800 stradd. The game is clearly getting massive. But having seen Peter play a few times now, I go for a raise to 16,000 with the worst ace you can possibly have. You know, Peter's not backing down. He makes the call and we see a flop for 32,000. Flop is king jack 72 hearts. He checks and I'm just hoping he completely missed this one and start off with a bet of$10,000. I get a very quick fold and that's an extra $16,000 in profit from just a simple quick hand.
The chips are really starting to pile up now. So 90 minutes in, I'm up over $140,000.
I don't know what's going on today, but I'm happy to be here for it. And we're getting back into the action where Peter raises the big blind to 2,200. I'm in the $800 straddle and three bet to 8,000 now with ace jack. Seems like a pretty reasonable hand, right? But you know, Peter unafraid as always. And he puts in yet another raise to 22,000.
I didn't come here to fold ACEJ. That's for damn sure. Let's see a casual flop for 45,000, shall we? The flop is ace ace4. Woo! What a glorious flop to see.
And even better, we see Peter put in a bet of 12,000. I don't see why I'd ever raise here, so let's just make the call.
The turn comes a queen, no flush ra, and looks pretty clean. Peter checks now, and I think I can check back sometimes, which is what I decided to do here with a very strong hand. In the river comes another four, giving me a full house.
And now I have zero concerns yet. Peter now slams down a pot-sized bet, counting a whole lot of red 5k chips that amount to 70,000. And I take a quick inventory count of my stack to see if it's worth jamming at all. But I think against it as I could sometimes just run into ace queen and lose more money. I flick in a call expecting to win a lot. And this time I do. Here comes $210,000 my way. By far the biggest pot of the night so far. And we're only 100 minutes in. I can't possibly explain how I feel right now. 100 minutes ago, I was honestly expecting to lose a lot of money and preparing myself for that outcome. But now I'm sitting with $300,000.
I'm up a quarter of a million dollar and it's just insane how fast and unexpected the rung good can come. Hey guys, I'm driving to film the next video. And if you like what you see and want to play some poker with me, you can click the link in the description below. This video is sponsored by Gold, where there are hundreds of tables to play on a daily basis. and use my name Rampage when you make an account for special sign up bonuses. I'll see you on the virtual felt. With the Squid Game in effect this hand, Britney calls 800.
Mariano raises to 5,000 from the small blind. Peter makes the call and I look down at Ace4 off suit. Typically could definitely fold, but I go for another raise myself to 20,000. I'm expecting Mariano to be raising pretty light a lot of the time for fighting for that button, but he does make the call and off to a flop we go of 933 two spades.
Mario starts off with a check and I don't expect him to hit this flop very often. So, I bet 15,000 hoping to just win this pot right here, right now. But you can see he's going absolutely nowhere and actually ends up raising to 50,000. I'm pretty quickly folding here and I say goodbye to the $35,000 I just gave away. As much as I'm up, I also have to be okay with losing large sums of money as well. Next, Airball starts off the action with a raise to 20,000.
Peter makes the call and I look down at ace7 of clubs from the straddle. I'm feeling pretty spicy and I want to squeeze to 11,000 here. I'm really just trying to win this one pre flop, but I'm okay with getting action and I do get it from Peter as we've been playing very big pots against each other all night long. The flop is 963 rainbow. Not a whole lot going on here, so I decide to check my hand back. The turn comes the queen of diamonds. Another card that really doesn't help me. I check again and the river nine of clubs. And this time on the river, Peter fires out 27,000.
I mean, this is a pretty large bet. And we've obviously seen Peter being very capable of bluffing. My hand is just so bad. Yet, Peter is just so capable of bluffing here. So, I decide to keep him honest and see what he's got. Flick in the 27,000. And yes, you all see it.
It's not a great decision at all.
Yeah, I say goodbye to $78,000 in this pod going the wrong direction and I give Peter some of his chips back. Back to the fight we go with Peter limping in for $800. I raise it up to 4,000 here and he makes the call. Round 18 of what it feels like against Peter. We're only two hours into the session. The flop is 6542 clubs with middle pair. I decide to go for some pot control and check back.
Quick note, have you ever heard me say pot control before? The river six of clubs is a nice card to see sitting with the ace of clubs. And Peter launches $10,000 into the middle. And I'll happily oblige with a call cuz why not?
River 10 doesn't seem like a card that really changes a whole lot. And once again, Peter fires out $23,000.
This time, I actually think I have an easier decision to call. And it's the right call this time. I get my chips back that I just gave Peter and we are once again swinging for these $75,000 pots. that seem far too casual at this point. You guys have a guess who's involved in this next hand? That's right. It's Peter raising to 2,000 and I find ace jack yet again. This hand has served me so well before. So, I raise a 7,000. Action folds back to our friend and he once again amps up the aggression another time to 27,000. I mean, this hand definitely falls into the call category for me. So with 55,000 in the middle, I see a dream flop of ace jack four. Two pair. So another big pot could be brewing and I've got an easy decision. Peter bets 20,000. I've got the board locked up. Yeah, I'm going to come for a call. Just smooth call here laying the trap. The turn board pairing four, which he now slows down with a check. And this time I actually don't really want to trap Peter. I think maybe we can get some more money in. So, I bet 33,000, which is considered a small bet considering the size of the pot, but he folds. So, yeah, here's the story of how I just play massive pots all night long against Peter, it seems. We've got a different opponent this time. Nick raises to 4,000 on my $800 straddle, and I see a beautiful four, five of hearts, and we're off to a flop of 963. We've got the openender, and I call Nick's $3,000 bet. The turn board pairing six is really cool and I actually like this card. I don't think Nick has a six too often and I decided to lead for 5,000. I guess he's priced in to come along for a call. The river jack and I'm sitting with five high. The straight draw brricked and I think I was representing a six earlier on the turn. So I'm going to play it this way and overb to 33,000 followed by a snap call. So that's pretty bad. This bluff doesn't work out and I'm swinging back down losing a $90 freaking,000 pot. Mario starts off the action in the next one with a raise to $1,100 from the button. Peter once again just smooth calls and now it's my turn to act and I see the beautiful jack 10 suited against these two opponents. I think another raise is certainly in order and I make it 7500. Mariano gets out of the way, but clearly Peter has other plans by bumping it up to 25,000.
I mean, given all the history today, it seems crazy to fold a hand like this.
Has a lot of potential. It's really pretty. And we get to play in position.
I make the call and another round against Peter we go. The flop is king 87. So, not the best flop for me, but I do have a chance at a straight draw.
Peter down bets to 15,000. And I think it's just small enough for me to continue and stick around. Maybe we can win a big one. Spiking a nine turn is not that. Not the one we're looking for.
And Peter's $35,000 bet will now get me out. So wave my hands. Goodbye $40,000.
Sometimes got to risk it for the biscuit. And this time I'm just left with crumbs after this hand. Nick limps in this hand. Peter raises to 3,000.
Surprise, surprise. And all this beautiful action to look down at kings.
Very nice to have a premium finally.
Like actually a really good hand this time. And I raise it to 15,000. And of course Peter will not be folding. Makes the call. This flop is pretty awful when I see the ace out there. Yet I still feel compelled to bet it. So I go small for 7,000. Yet Peter decided to take the liberty and raise me small to 17,000.
And I'm just a little suspicious about this. I mean, but also I really don't have too strong of a hand anymore.
Deathly afraid of that ace. So, I let it go and Peter gets the better one against me this time. As the session progresses along, the stacks are flying and airball starts off with the raise of 3,000. I'm in the 800 straddle again and I'm ready to defend my honor. I make the call, sir, with the again the five high. Flop is queen 63. I've got another openender here and Nick bets 3,000. Considering I missed the last time with four five, I certainly must be able to hit now, right? So, I check raise to 11,000, banking on hitting that straight. I'm praying get a chance to hit it. And Nick makes the call and the turn eight of clubs. It doesn't really give me much here, but with five high in a dream, I bet $20,000 continuing with my bluff.
And Nick is quite the sticky one. I mean, he's really not getting away from ace high just yet. And makes the call.
The river comes in nine. Well, damn.
I've bricked this straight draw twice in a row now. And do I really want to bluff off a majority of my winnings tonight?
Well, it's just five high, but I didn't come all this way to give up, right? So, I'm going to fire out 40,000 into the middle, and I'm begging for a fold.
Nick, please let go of ace high one time in your life. My goodness, how is he actually taking so long at this point?
And the more he thinks, the more I hate this spot that I'm in. But he actually calls out my exact hand at one point during his tank.
>> I mean, four, five again.
>> And luckily, after a long time thinking and giving me an anxiety attack, he folds. Oo, and the beautiful thing is that I have to show the hand, too, which gives insult to injury to Nick. And maybe we've got Nick a little steamed up. I'm feeling confident again after getting that bluff through and feeling even better when I wake up with pocket queens. There's a raise, there's a call, so naturally I'll three bet to 8,000.
And what's music to my ears is that Britney announces an allin for 50,000.
Oh my goodness, what a dream spot to be in. I couldn't call any quicker. And we're off to a run out for this $100,000 pot. This would be massive for me. And to add this to the total that I'm up, let's hold >> five for Britney.
>> Two pairs.
>> Rampage picks up a straight draw that he doesn't need. And >> straight >> straight.
>> Rivers a set that he doesn't need. He's going to stack Britney.
I will happily add that $50,000 extra to my stack. I feel like I am on a dream run right now with all the pots of winning today. While I'm stacking my chips, it seems like a great reminder to everyone that's still watching to hit that like button and subscribe to the channel. Both are free and would love to see some support as I'm finally winning big for the first time in what feels like forever. With all this momentum going my way, I look at a pretty 87 of hearts on the button. Raise up to 3,000 and Britney makes the call after reloading for another 50,000. And a flop of 995 comes with my straight draw. I bet 2,000, but I don't get the fold just yet. She makes the call. The turn deuce of hearts completely no help for me, but that's never stopped me from barreling again. You know, this time I make it to the tune of 10,000 and we run into some more resistance as Britney makes the call. The river ace. Well, if there was ever a card to bluff on, I think it's right now. And this one might be it. As I'm trying to fold out a sticky five, I decide to put her all in and run into a complete brick wall. As the merrygoround of chips continue, I double her up in quite a punty fashion. So, I just return all the chips I won off of her right back to their owner. After our break from Peter, we get involved again. Peter limps for 800 and I see ace queen, which is very worthy of a $4,000 raise. I think most people would agree with, right? Anyways, Mariano decides to wake up and three bet to 20,000. And we go back against Mariano. This time I make the call with over $40,000 in the middle. And the flop is 107. A whole lot of nothing here, but ace queen high seems like a pretty decent call to me against a 10k bet. The turn comes an eight, which is not the best card for me. And I'll happily let this go. Check.
Check. And off to a river we go, which comes a three. Action checks through yet again, which is always nice to win a pot with ace high, but even nicer to profit $30,000 in this hand. With an hour left to go in the night, we're fighting for the squid game here. Peter calls for $800. I raise a $6,000 for my hand of pocket sixes. Jeff to my left though three bets me at 22,000 which is quite large but I'm not going anywhere with just a pair yet. We could always hit a set and I'm pretty optimistic and getting that Asian glow. I'm a few sips of wine in and it's already showing with that Asian flush with the flop comes 74 deuce. Jeff fires out $20,000 in the middle while I'm trying to order another bottle of wine from the waitress. Just a little tad distracted but I will call and see a turn which comes a five. A pretty welcome sight to see now with an open ender as I can never fold to anything. And Jeff amps up the aggression to $55,000.
I'm now facing one of the bigger bets of the night and you know I'm not folding and I'd love to hit. We've got almost $200,000 in the middle. Give me a three, please. The river 10 of diamonds is not close at all, but my heart can beat just a little slower as Jeff checks. usually some sort of a sign of a give up. This is exactly what that is. I check back and win a massive pot. Nearing the end of the night, bringing my stack over $400,000.
But there's no time to rest as the next hand we're involved right away. I raise ace9 of clubs to 4,000 followed by a call from Jeff. Then Mariano three bets me to $25,000.
With how splashy everyone's been playing, this seems like a pretty clear call. So, we're going to see what develops. And the flop is what dreams are made of, right? I've got the nut flush draw, the straight draw, the two over cards. It can't get better than this on 865. Mariano bets a small amount of 16,000. And I just think this bet is full of it. I'm also quite happy to put more money in the middle here with how strong my draw is. So, I put in a raise to 55,000. I'm very happy to play a big pot here. That is until Mariano announces all in.
>> Whoa.
All in count. I need a count. Wow. What is this? My mind is now going all over the place. Mainly that this is an unfoldable hand. But also, what in the world is Mariano doing? If I call, this will be close to an $800,000 pot. By far the largest pot of my entire career. But with how bad of a run I've been on, I also just don't think I can really afford to lose a pot this big either. So, I can only think of all the downside of calling. But there's also a chance he can jam with worse flush draws as well. I just don't understand it. But I'm losing my mind here making this decision. I mean, I literally have a decision to either win or lose a pot that's worth more than the average house in this country. I guess that's why we love to play this game, right? I end up deciding to make what I would call an insane fold strictly out of fear of losing a pot this size. And I can't help but have to look at what the runout could have been. And oh my goodness, I would have missed both boards. The biggest fold of my entire life. arguably a very bad one. I would have ended up losing nearly an $800,000 pot if I called. And I just don't even know what to say or how to feel right now. If you made it this far, I need your input in the comments below. But I feel like I've clearly shown how scared money I am right now in this game. And I'm way in over my head to fold a hand as strong as mine. I feel like I've gotten away with murder here folding to be honest with you. But wow, my mind is just completely blown from how this hand has played. I'm trying my best to stay composed for the rest of the session. And I see ace king.
I raise it to 3,000. And Jeff, who's been fairly quiet tonight, three bets me to 12,000. Feel like here with ace king off suit, so I can just kind of call.
See a flop. And the flop is 1043.
Completely missed the board here. I check as Jeff bets out 10,000. and it seems like a pretty decent time to toss in a call. The turn eight of hearts is not really one I love to see. And Jeff continues for 21,000.
I definitely have arguments to fold now, or actually all the arguments to fold now. But given the hand I just saw, I kind of level myself into thinking maybe Jeff is targeting me for being scared money, I flick in more chips. The river five brings me completely zero help and I'm going to lose this $88,000 pot. So, these two bad pawns in a row where I just lost like $115,000, the swings really come at you fast. And luckily, I'm still up a lot, but it doesn't feel good knowing I lost over $100,000 in the past two hands to wrap up the night. for one of the last hands of the night. This show ends off in an epic $900,000 pot where Mariano completely coolers Peter with the nuts versus a third nut straight. I'm very happy for my friend here who has had a pretty unlucky night for the last 6 hours. I think he was down close to $360,000 at the bottom of his session, but just balloons up into profit after winning one of the largest pots I've ever been able to witness in person.
>> I'm drunk, but here are my chips. I will do a proper outro rather shortly, but I'm going to cash this out and the stream is over. And I survived the battle. What a ridiculous day this was.
Oh, hey. Why did you jam the king eight, man?
>> Congratulations on this guy. Stuck 360K and crawls out after winning a 900k pot putt. That kid.
