Patrik Antonius
In a raised pot, Patrik Antonius and his opponent saw a flop of {10-Diamonds}{K-Spades}{6-Hearts}. Antonius checked the action over to his opponent who bet 2,800 in chips. Antonius deliberated in his usual style before making the call. The turn brought the {9-Spades} and both players checked. The river landed the {8-Hearts} and once again it was checked down. Antonius flipped {Q-Spades}{Q-Diamonds}, which was too good for his opponent who had {A-Diamonds}{Q-Hearts} for a missed gutshot straight draw.

Antonius is gathering momentum late in the day and will be dangerous to contend with as he uses his large stack to his advantage.
