Josef Antos Reaches Half a Million with Pocket Rockets
Level 6
: 600/1,200, 200 ante
Czech Republic's Josef Antos is among the chip leaders and possibly the first player to reach at least 500,000 in chips.
He recently got into a preflop raising battle holding pocket aces against an opponent holding pocket kings. His opponent eventually declared himself all in for around 235,000 and Antos quickly called having his opponent covered by 30,000. The board ran out blanks for both players and after the hand, Antos' chip stack was five times of what he started with.
