Antonius Spikes the River to Bust Belcher
Level 12
: 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante
Matthew Belcher raised to 25,000 in the hijack and Patrik Antonius three-bet to 55,000 on the button. Belcher then moved all in for 160,000 and Antonius quickly called.
Matthew Belcher: A?K? 
Patrik Antonius: A?10?
Belcher had Antonius dominated and was poised for a double up going to the A?9?8? flop, which gave both players top pair. Antonius picked up outs to a straight on the 7? turn, while the 10? river gave him two pair and sent Belcher off to the exit.
