Antonius Takes a Huge Hit on the Last Hand of Day

On a flop of {J-Spades} {10-Clubs} {5-Spades}, Patrik Antonius checked to Tor Gammelgard who bet 3,500. Antonius then raised to 9,500, which prompted a 25,000 reraise from Gammelgard. Antonius then moved all in, and Gammelgard made the call.

Gammelgard: {A-Spades} {J-Diamonds}
Antonius: {J-Hearts} {6-Hearts}

Antonius was out-kicked and desperately needed a six. The turn fell the {A-Diamonds}, which left Antonius drawing dead, and the river added insult to injury when the {A-Clubs} fell. This wound up being the final hand of the evening.

After the hand, Gammelgard moved up to 81,850 and Antonius finished his night with 64,125.
