The unknown Swede, Isildur1 started showing up at the highest stakes at Full Tilt poker a few weeks ago. Since then he has won millions of dollars against some of the world's best poker players. Another player that has been doing very well is Patrik Antonius who has won over 5 million dollars this year.

No. Most of the time they would have split the pot. Isildur could win with a K or J that is no heart (5 cards), Antonius would win with any 8 and any heart without the Queen (10 cards).

I agree with written above... Isuludur didn't read the Antonius hand good enough... Antonius had a lot of outs to win this, though he did play risky... i can understand Isuludur's disappointment but I guess Antonius also thought its about time Isuludur loses
That seems very fishy to me. That hand looks like the most perfect Set-Up hand you can get. But then again, these high-stakes players often make just as many donk moves as the rest of us do.

omg, such crazy pot sizes, can't even believe that after this lost isildur1 is going to get back on his feet. But if money isn't a problem it's a different story
