In February 2023, No Gamble, No Future premiered Cash of the Titans that featured Andrew Robl, Eric Persson, Rob Yong, Markus Gonsalves, Matthew Gonzales, and Patrik Antonius. The buy-in was $1,000,000 and stakes began at $500/$500 blinds that escalated every three hours over three days. Each player put $100,000 on the side, and the player that won the most money would win the $600,000 side pot. On the final hand day of filming, there was a $1,978,000 pot between Antonius and Persson that set the record for the biggest pot in U.S. poker stream history.[14][15]

With blinds at $1,000 / $2,000 and a $2,000 big blind ante, Persson raised to $7,000 with Q 9 and Yong called on the button with A 2. Antonius made it $30,000 from the small blind with A K and both Persson and Yong called. Antonius bet $40,000 on the 3 3 8 flop and Persson raised to $140,000. Yong folded and Antonius reraised to $250,000.[16] Persson called and the turn landed the A. Antonius bet $150,000 and Persson moved all-in. Antonius called all-in for $692,000 and had Persson drawing dead as the river fell the J.[11] Following the record-breaking pot, there were three pots of $1,657,000, $1,298,000, and $1,269,000 that also amounted to larger than the previous $1,158,000 record pot that was set in December 2022 on Hustler Casino Live.[12][17]
