I thought there had been a couple of million dollar plus pots out there, but I am probably wrong.

Talk about an ideal situation ... PA hit one of his draws after all the money went in and only had to fade five cards. It was almost a freeroll.

After the hand, Antonius reportedly typed into the chat:
"quack quack he does not like it."

Pretty sick, and it's the biggest online pot confirmed.

Meh, I'm a PLO numpty, but what could PA have on the turn, which was worse than Isildur, but still make him go all in on it?
I read some percentages in a newspaper, from memory it was 16% to win for Isildur, 26% for PA and rest being a split. What win percentage would Isildur think he had? How about PA?

I think Isildur is still up a bit.
