Antonius turned up the pressure on Dwan during the last two PLO hands. After Dwan checked, Antonius bet $76,000 on a board of {8-Diamonds}

{8-Diamonds}

{5-Diamonds}

{4-Diamonds}

{10-Spades}

{4-Hearts}

. Dwan sighed and craned his neck before mucking.

The next hand was raised preflop to $6,000. Dwan check-called $12,000 on a flop of {K-Diamonds}

{K-Diamonds}

{9-Diamonds}

{8-Clubs}

, then led into Antonius for $31,000 when the turn came {Q-Clubs}

{Q-Clubs}

. Antonius responded by raising pot, a total of $98,000 more to Dwan. He smiled, sighed and said, "Such a cool hand," before giving up the ghost.

They're back to hold'em. If the game were to end right now, Antonius would have the best of it by a couple hundred thousand.
