Yesterday on Full Tilt Poker, Patrik Antonius and Tom "kingsofcards" Marchese played a hand that can only be described as poker at its' finest. Both players fight for the pot to the bitter end, and it all culminates with Patrik's huge call for $101,000 with nothing but king high.


This defines analysis by mere mortals; suffice it to say that Patrik needs a whole lot more than just 4:1 odds to call 100k on the river. Here's the hand history, enjoy:
