Antonius Doubles, Then Commits Near-Fatal Misclick

Level 15 : Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante
Patrik Antonius
Patrik Antonius

Jean-Noel Thorel raised to 26,000 under the gun, Patrik Antonius moved all in for 36,000 in middle position, and Thorel called.

Patrik Antonius: 88 All in
Jean-Noel Thorel: J9

The board ran out A72K5 and Antonius' eights stayed in the lead to earn him a double up.

The next hand, Antonius shoved for 102,000, Samuel Ju put in his last 100,000, and Thorel called in the big blind.

Samuel Ju: AQ All in
Patrik Antonius: 106 All in
Jean-Noel Thorel: KQ

"I miscounted my chips," Antonius said once the cards were revealed. Ju hit top pair on the A6J flop and stayed in front through the 9 turn and 3 river to triple up, while Antonius won the small side pot off Thorel that left him with an extreme short stack.

Jules Dickerson

Jules Dickerson moved all in for 204,000 in the hijack and Patrik Antonius called in the small blind.

Jules Dickerson: QJ All in
Patrik Antonius: A10

Dickerson caught top pair on the Q94 flop to take the lead, while Antonius couldn't catch up as the board ran out 23, earning Dickerson a double up.

At the same time at the other table, Sam Greenwood moved all in from the small blind and Erik Seidel called for 95,000 in the big blind.

Erik Seidel: 22 All in
Sam Greenwood: 66

Seidel was dominated by Greenwood's pair of sixes and fell further behind on the 46Q flop as Greenwood hit a set. The 5 turn gave Seidel some hope with a straight draw, but the A fell on the river and Seidel was sent to the rail.
