Winter took down the pot and moved up close to four million in chips.

Patrik Antonius Eliminated in 6th Place (€278,400)

Patrik Antonius

Patrik Antonius shoved for 400,000 from the cutoff and Jesse Lonis called on the button.

Patrik Antonius: KJ All in
Jesse Lonis: 77

It was a classic flip, with Antonius at risk. The flop Q66 changed nothing, with Antonius not even picking up any hearts. The turn 9 did give him straight outs.

"I'll take a jack," said Antonius, but the river was the 8 and he was the first elimination at the final table, taking home €278,400.

Winter Outkicks Davies

Level 18 : Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante

Seth Davies rasied to 100,000 from under the gun and Sean Winter defended in the big blind.

The 85K flop saw Winter check-call a bet of 70,000 from Davies.

The 2 turn checked through to the Q on the river. Winter checked again and Davies checked back. Winter rolled over A10, while Davies conceded the pot with A9 having been outkicked.

"If I stare at it long enough it'll turn into a chop, right?" joked Davies as he mucked his cards.

It's official. After its return in 2023 following a 12-year hiatus, PokerStars has confirmed that The Big Game on Tour is back again this year, with more episodes to be filmed at the NAPT Las Vegas festival.

Ten episodes of the show were filmed last year, with the likes of Phil Hellmuth, Maria Ho, Lex Veldhuis and Sam Grafton all taking part. The show features a lucky Loose Cannon who receives $50,000 and has to survive 150 hands playing $50/$100 with a table of poker pros, ambassadors, and celebrities.

PokerNews spoke with Big Game on Tour judge and commentator James Hartigan ahead of the show's return, and he says he's thrilled the show is back.
