Alan Keating was caught speeding on Sunday night when he attempted to bluff Sam 'Senor Tilt' Kiki in a $1.295 million pot on a special edition livestream of High Stakes Poker.

Keating, who was the center of attention on Saturday with two big pots against Doug Polk and Santhosh Suvarna, got right back to it on Sunday night in the $200/400 game at the PokerGO Studio in Las Vegas. 

The special edition livestream continued on Sunday night with Kiki, Keating, Polk and Suvarna, joined by Andrew Robl, Jennifer Tilly, Justin Gavri, and Cary Katz

Keating gets out of line

The big bluff started with a string of straddles that ended with $6,400 from Keating, who was raised to $30,000 by Kiki and his . Suvarna, another straddler, called with before Keating came along with to make it a supersized three-way pot. 

The flop was and Kiki, who had the hot hand, tossed out $30K. 

"Will he have a customer?" Brent Hanks asked on commentary as Suvarna folded. "Seems unlikely but who knows..."

Scott Seiver, who had just taken his seat in the booth, chimed in. "Wouldn't be the craziest spot."

As Seiver said it, Keating did it. "Oh my gosh," Hanks said as Keating called. "Floating with four high."

"Note that he can't even make the wheel," Nick Schulman added. "That would give (Kiki) the boat."

Senor Tilt called one of the biggest bluffs ever seen on a livestream. Senor Tilt called one of the biggest bluffs ever seen on a livestream.

Kiki checked the turn, inducing a $45K bet from Keating, which prompted a raise to $125K. 

"Hold on, now," Hanks said. "We're done with this hand, right?"

They weren't. Keating cut out calling chips and the hand continued to the river. 

"Welcome to the booth, Scotty," Schulman added. "They've blessed you with a masterpiece."

The river was and the pot had swelled to $403K. Kiki checked and the booth gasped as Keating went all in. The snap call for $446K more put the final pot at $1,295,600. "That was a magical hand," Seiver said. 

Schulman agreed. "The Blez might have passed out and died in the booth if he saw this one."
