Today’s blog entry will go over Patrik Antonius, another pro you can play against on a Full Tilt Poker download. Antonius was born in 1980 in Finland where he worked as both a tennis coach and model before he started earning huge profits on a Full Tilt Poker download. Today he is living in Monte Carlo with his wife and daughter, and they are expecting a second child later this year.
Antonius started playing poker with his friends just as a hobby, but he eventually built a bankroll online. He started making big money, so he went pro in 2002 and that’s when he moved to Las Vegas. In Vegas he sat in many of the US poker rooms, and he was a regular in the Bellagio’s Big Game. While he played in the WSOP using a satellite ticket he won, he did not win a title. In fact, he still hasn’t won a WSOP bracelet to this day.
Antonius starting putting himself in the poker spotlight in 2005 with some big tournament accomplishments. He started in casinos for US players, cashing two WPT tournaments and then profiting in 3 World Series of Poker events. When he was finished with the WSOP, he profited in another WPT tournament, a runner up finish for $1 million in the WPT Five Diamond Classic. He also played tournaments in Europe in 2005. He came 3rd in the big event in Barcelona and then took 1st in the Baden Classic for over $340k.
Since then, Antonius has continued to add to his winnings. In fact, he’s made approximately $3 million playing live tournament poker. Unlike a lot of popular professionals, though, he’d rather play online than live. He plays a ton of high stakes cash games on money poker sites, often preferring heads-up Texas Hold’em and Pot Limit Omaha. Sources say he made over $9 million profit in online casino USA last year! You might already know that he’s the first person to play Tom Dwan in the Million Dollar Challenge.
In his spare time, Antonius enjoys sports betting and betting on golf games. This is all added to the millions of dollars he’s lost to fellow poker players via tournament stakes. Most of us will never see that much money in our lifetimes! The almost degenerate gambling likely makes people want to know if he plays free bet sportsbooks in between his sessions at Full Tilt. It would appear that he has more in common with Phil Ivey than just poker!
If you would like the chance to play with Patrik Antonius, go ahead and play at Full Tilt. He has stated that he enjoys cash games a lot more than tournaments, so look for him in high stakes ring games. Have fun!
