Hi All,
What am I doing wrong here?

You escaped the parens around (123) incorrectly:
$ 6 'my $x="abc\(123\)def"; $x ~~ m/(abc)\((123)\)(def)/; say "$x\n\$0=<$0> \$1=<$1>
\$2=<$2>\n"'
abc(123)def
$0=<abc> $1=<123> $2=<def>

Hi Liz,
Thank you! I must have been seeing things!
perl6 -e 'my $x="abc\(123\)def"; $x ~~ m/(abc\()(123)(\)def)/; say
"$x\n\$0=<$0> \$1=<$1> \$2=<$2>\n";'
abc(123)def
$0=<abc(> $1=<123> $2=<)def>
Many thanks,
