This is televised cash game poker from Sweden, Scandinavia. Some top players are on the table including Tobbe Persson, Ilari Sahamies, Patrick Antonius, Tony G. & Per Hildebrand. When Ilari hits bottom two pair on the flop (3/5) and both Per and Patrick hit top pair — we can see the aggressiveness of Patrick Antonius, re-raising with the top pair and a small kicker in this situation.

Now, if this were me, I might have done the same — it’s not a bad feeler-raise, and it would get anyone out that is on anything but a better hand than he is. That’s where I feel Patrick went wrong in this hand. The Youtube commenters seem to agree he had to move in, but I can’t see why? Even against the nut flush draw he’d be an underdog, and there’s a good chance he’s a huge dog against any 8 with a kicker, or two pair/set.

Still, once the cards were flipped over Patrick had a good amount of outs — they didn’t come, though. Show looks like great fun, too bad it’s Swedish. :)
