With over 10,000 in the pot, three players including Patrik Antonius saw the flop. The board came down {9-Clubs}{J-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds} to start and the small blind began with aggression, betting 5,050. Antonius thought for a while and then pushed out a call.

"How much do you have left?" he asked Antonius. After he received and answer he sat for a bit longer before mucking his cards.

Antonius and his opponent saw the {10-Spades} fall on the turn and after a moment his opponent moved all in. Antonius called, having his opponent covered by a bit and tabled {9-Diamonds}{9-Hearts} for a set of nines, which was ahead of his opponent's {Q-Spades}{Q-Diamonds}. The river brought the {J-Spades} giving Antonius a full house and ensuring him a win.

As his opponent walked away from the table, Maya Geller came to see what all of the commotion was about and gave her husband a few words of congratulations.

Gross Loses Heaps

Jeff Gross, who finished second in this year's $5,000 No-Limit Hold'em Shootout, just lost a big pot that put him below 20,000.

We picked this hand up on a flop of {9-Clubs}{8-Hearts}{3-Hearts} when Gross bet out 3,700. His opponent raised to 8,000, Gross re-raised to 14,700, and his opponent went all in for 23,275. Gross made the call showing {a-Clubs}{a-Spades} but was behind the flopped set {8-Diamonds}{8-Clubs} of his opponent.

The turn {7-Clubs} and river {2-Diamonds} were no help, and Gross fell back to 17,500. He's got some work to do if he hopes to make it to Day 2 with a healthy stack

Thorson Picks Up Needed One

We caught up with the action on a {Q-Hearts}{3-Hearts}{2-Diamonds} flop where a player check-called a bet of 800 from William Thorson. Both players checked the {5-Spades} turn and Thorson was the one who called a 1,650 bet on the {J-Spades} river. The opponent turned over {A-Hearts}{6-Hearts} for missed straight and flush draws while Thorson showed {Q-Diamonds}{10-Spades} for top pair which was good to win the pot but still kept him below the starting stack.

When we arrived at Dan Kelly's table, he was heads up in a hand that had about 8,500 in the middle already, and a board reading {a-Spades}{j-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}{k-Diamonds}. Kelly's opponent bet out 5,600, and Kelly thought for about 15 seconds before tossing in the chips to call. The {7-Hearts} hit the river, and Kelly's opponent softly checked after a few moments of thought. Kelly waited about 45 seconds, then decided to check as well. His opponent tabled {j-Clubs}{8-Clubs} for a flopped two pair, and Kelly mucked his hand. He is still in good shape with about 41,000.
