Only one man in the tournament room speaks in the third person and calls himself The Wolf. But he who howls twice as loudly does so for half as long, as the PokerStars Blog reports.
We missed the elimination of Patrik Antonius, but upon hearing of his demise we made our way over to his former table to garner some details. Fortunately, Stephen Chidwick was there and filled us in on what happened to the former tennis star.
According to Chidwick, Antonius got his stack all in holding pocket kings and was primed to double through a player holding pocket queens. Antonius held on the flop, but then the dealer burned and turned a lady to drive a dagger through his heart. The river was of no consequence, and that was all she wrote for Antonius.
Meanwhile, Peter Chan and former EPT champ Oleksii Khoroshenin have also been eliminated from the EPT11 Grand Final Main Event.

Team PokerStars Pro and reigning World Series of Poker Main Event champ George Danzer opened for 800 and received a call from the UK's Victor Ilyukhin. After the flop came down 
, Danzer fired out 2,000 and Ilyukhin moved all in. Danzer quickly called off for 7,150 total and the cards were turned on their back.
Danzer: 
Ilyukhin: 
Danzer got it in good, but Ilyukhin was drawing to a flush draw. Much to Danzer's dismay, a third club appeared on the board when the 
reared its ugly head. Danzer was drawing dead, and he watched helplessly as the 
river made his elimination official.

Although Patrik Antonius recently busted from the €10,600 Main Event, there's plenty more events for him to get in on, like the one-day €50,000 Super High Roller. Before he was eliminated, PokerNews' Remko Rinkema caught up with Antonius to talk about what he's been up to lately and get the lowdown on a second high-stakes tennis match against Brandon Adams.
Last time the two battled on the court, Antonius defeated Adams easily. According to Antonius, Adams has improved his game, so the match will be a little bit more competitive. Antonius will also start each of his serves down 0-30.
Check out the interview:
Six levels are in the books, and that means it's time for the 75-minute dinner break. When they return, the remaining players will play two more levels before bagging and tagging for the night.
Nível: 7
Blinds: 250/500
Ante: 50
Martin Jacobson defended his big blind from Georgios Sotiropoulos' open from under the gun. On a flop of 
both players checked, but Jacobson bet out 3,500 on the turn card which was the 
. Sotiropoulos quickly called and the river brought the 
. This time the reigning WSOP Main Event champion checked, and his opponent made it 4,800.
Throughout the hand both players had been staring at eachother, with Jacobson being met only by the glasses of the player seated directly to his left. The Swedish pro frowned as he looked between the board and Sotiropoulos' bet. He eventually folded, and could do with some chips as his stack shifted below starting stack.
