Antonius Finds His Double

Smile, Patrick... you just doubled up
Smile, Patrick... you just doubled up
Jonathan Little opened the pot with a raise from middle position, and only Patrik Antonius came along out of the big blind. The flop showed up {5-Spades} {3-Spades} {3-Diamonds}, and Antonius would check-raise all in after Little's continuation bet. It was a bit less than 15,000 total, and Little made the call to put Antonius at risk.

Showdown
Little: {A-Diamonds} {Q-Diamonds}
Antonius: {10-Spades} {6-Spades}

The turn was a miss with the {5-Hearts}, but the river paid off Antonius with the {2-Spades}, making his spade flush and doubling him back to about 35,000.
