Patrik Antonius Eliminated in 5th Place (AU$700,000)
Level 20
: 30,000/60,000, 5,000 ante
Patrik Antonius raised the size of the pot (230,000) from the cutoff, which left him less than 200,000 behind. Mike "Timex" McDonald called him from the button, the blinds folded, and it was heads-up action to the 
flop.
Antonius dropped in the last of his chips and McDonald made the call.
McDonald: 
Antonius: 
McDonald was ahead with the pocket pair, but his Finnish foe was drawing live to two overs. The 
turn changed nothing, and neither did the 
river. Antonius, who finished third in last year's Aussie Millions Main Event, missed and had to settle for fifth place and AU$700,000.
