Patrik Antonius Challenges Top Players at Full Tilt Poker

June 17 - The latest Full Tilt professional player recruit, Patrik Antonius, has issued a direct challenge to some of the industry's top online poker players on his blog, and invited them to meet him at Full Tilt for some heads-up poker action.

"I would like to issue a little challenge to a few online players who have been very successful at the biggest games online the past few months," he wrote. "All they do is hide behind their computer screens, scared to play anyone they think is any good."

"Durr, OMGClayAiken, trex313, Urindanger, I am looking for action and I want a chance to play against the best," he continued. "I will play any of you on any game on Full Tilt. I will be waiting; hopefully you're up for the challenge."

Patrik Antonius, who is now playing with his real name at Full Tilt instead of his screen name Finddaggrind, made a direct call to some of the current top tops in the industry. Tom Dwan, who Antonius refers to by his screen name durr, has earned more than $2 million playing at online poker sites - and that was before his 21st birthday! Now that he has reached the legal land tournament age, Dwan has won ninth place in the World Poker Tour and two finishes in the Aussie Millions. He is also gearing up to win big at the World Series of Poker event.

Antonius also called to the Dang brothers, Di and Hac who go under the names of trex313 and Urindanger. Although the pair have not yet entered into the tournament circuit, they are well known online, especially at Full Tilt for playing - and winning - huge stakes.

Patrik Antonius continues to make waves in the poker industry. He was the youngest player ever to be asked to join the high stakes Big Game at the Bellagio and is clearly considered one of the best heads-up players in the world.
