Antonius Takes Out Thorel
Level 15
: Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante
Michel Molenaar opened to 24,000 from the hijack and was called by Jean-Noel Thorel on the button and Biao Ding in the small blind. Patrik Antonius then shoved from the big blind. Molenaar got out of the way, Thorel called all in for his last 270,000, and Ding folded for a heads-up showdown.
Jean-Noel Thorel: K♣Q♠
Patrik Antonius: A♦9♦
The 4♣9♥7♣2♦8♠ runout kept Antonius best with a pair of nines and Thorel was eliminated.
