All the railbirds could smell the excitement in the virtual air as two fearless pros were about to go at in some very high stakes poker. The $500/$1000 Pot-Limit Omaha game on Full Tilt Poker table Ivey Thunderdome was being occupied by Phil Ivey and Patrik “FinddaGrind” Antonius. But the match did not last very long as both players pushed their near $100K stacks into the middle of the table on just the ninth hand of play. That $196K+ pot would be won by Antonius, and although Ivey quickly rebought for another $100K, he would go on to quit the match just a few hands later with a total $101K loss.
