partypoker MILLIONS Germany €25,000 High Roller won by Patrik Antonius

It's been years since we last heard of Patrik Antonius, and now he's back. The Finnish high-stakes poker pro who has been regarded as one of the oldies actually had not been able to make a final table since 2014, but this weekend he's proven that you can be an oldie but still a goodie when he took down the Super High Roller event this weekend at the partypoker MILLIONS Germany, and in the process, he managed to crush some of the young Germans and hottest players currently in the game.

The partypoker MILLIONS Germany €25,000 High Roller event attracted the top poker players all over the globe on February 9 at the King's Casino Rozvadov in Czech Republic, and it was Patrik Antonius who was the final entrant of 37 players to buy into the €25,000/$30,600 Super High Roller.

As a seasoned poker player, the "Flying Finn" did not let a world-class field faze him as he took the last remaining open slot in the event.

In the middle of the battlefield, Antonius maintained a clear head and a healthy stack, and his patience eventually paid off when he managed to become the last man standing. After taking a hit, he beat German Renato Nowak who fell in third place to settle a one-on-one with partypoker ambassador Joao Simao.

His past experience of being able to play at some of the biggest games around have allowed Antonius to keep his cool and struck the final blow with Queen of hearts and Jack of clubs. With the less experienced Simao desperate to take his opponent down, it seemed like pocket kings would do the trick.

However, 3 of spades, ace of diamonds, Jack of hearts, 10 of clubs, and King of diamonds gave the Brazilian no choice but to settle for second place right after Antonius revealed his straight.

Considering this was his first tournament ever to play in 2018, it sure was a good start of the year for Patrik Antonius!
