Throwback Hands: Patrik Antonius Lets Gus Hansen Off the Hook

The weekend starts inside THE VAULT on PokerGO with another classic matchup between two familiar opponents.

Gus Hansen and Patrik Antonius have played tens of thousands of hands against each other on Poker After Dark, online, tournaments, and high-stakes cash games. Familiarity breeds contempt but this time, it leads to Hansen having a tough decision in the weirdest way.

Antonius gets to the river with trip kings and is in a quality position to withdraw chips from the pocket queens of Gus Hansen. What happens next is a surprise to all viewers when Antonius slows down with a check.

Why let Hansen off easy? That’s an answer only Antonius knows. More questions from Antonius’ career are answered on the Heads Up with Remko Podcast with Part 1 and Part 2 available on the Poker Central Podcast Network.

More Poker After Dark is available by subscribing to PokerGO with “Open House” week available on demand.
