Patrik Antonius Eliminated

Patrik Antonius, the Feared Black Lotus of Poker
Patrik Antonius, the Feared Black Lotus of Poker
Patrik Antonius makes it 8,400 preflop, and Danny Felix calls from an earlier position. The flop comes {Q-Clubs}{9-Spades}{4-Clubs}, and Felix moves all in, covering Antonius, who thinks for a while before he calls all in for 33,000 with {Q-Diamonds}{10-Clubs} for top pair. Felix shows {A-Hearts}{Q-Hearts} for a pair of queens with a higher kicker. Antonius needs a ten or something runner-runner to stay alive.

The turn card is the {4-Hearts}, the river card is the {J-Diamonds}, and Patrik Antonius, the feared Black Lotus of Poker, has been eliminated from the Main Event.

Antonius only had one in-the-money finish at this year's WSOP, but it was a big one; he finished third in $10,000 Pot-Limit Omaha, earning $311,394.
