Antonius is a Huge Fish; Schindler on Top

Sometimes the game of poker can be tough. Spare a thought for young Jake Schindler who has had to talk to Maya Antonius all day. Now that honor would have put many a man of his game, but not Schindler, instead he has moved into our chip lead with 70,000 chips.

"I just ran good in the beginning and managed to get a stack big enough so I could play poker," said Schindler.

During one of their conversations Mrs Antonius told Schindler that her husband was playing in the $50k and when he asked her who her husband was she told him it was Patrik Antonius.

"Antonius? He is a huge fish," said Schindler in jest.
