Antonious:
Michelle:
Antonious didn't have to sweat long -- the turn was the and the river fell to make a full house, tens full of queens, for Antonious. Michelle was described as "fuming," asking Antonious questions like, "How could you call?" When Antonious pointed out his flush draw, Michelle responded that she made it 10,000 preflop. Antonious responded by showing a photo of his house in Florida and suggesting they should both go fishing after the tournament was over.
We doubt that will happen. Michelle is still in the tournament with 24,000 chips, while Antonious now has 190,000.
