Antonius Takes a Big One
Level 17
: 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante
With approximately 500,000 in the middle, the board read . Action was on Patrik Antonius and he was in the tank. His opponent was Tobias Reinkemeier and sat awaiting the decision of the stone-faced Antonius. After a couple minutes, Antonius moved out a bet of 380,000 into the middle.
It was now Reinkemeier's turn to tank. He thought for several minutes as Antonius sat as motionless as a statue. Reinkemeier had around 540,000 left in his stack, but eventually thought it was best to give this one up. Antonius pulled back his bet and then raked in the pot, moving up to 1.32 million in chips.
