One of the big talking points of this event was the anticipated 2009 WSOP debut for one Patrik Antonius. In a recent interview with Gloria Balding for PokerNews Video, Antonius indicated that he'd struggled recently with illness and motivation, but had every intention of playing this event today.
He is yet to be spotted here today, but as we know, the cool kids don't arrive for class on time. So will Antonius make an appearance?
