Re: Doyle\'s out
Hand #170 - Patrik Antonius has the button, he moves all in, and Pedersen immediately calls with Ad-4d. Antonius is dominated As-Ks. Pedersen needs to improve to stay alive here, as Antonius has a few more chips.
The flop comes 7h-6s-5d, and Pedersen picks up an open-ended straight draw, and he suddenly has a lot of outs. The turn card is the 3s, and Pedersen hits his straight. But now Antonius has picked up a flush draw, and lots of people in the audience start chanting, "Spade! Spade! Spade! Spade!"
The river card is the 10h, and Rehne Pedersen wins the hand with a seven-high straight to double up in chips. The new chip counts:
Rehne Pedersen - $16,500,000
Patrik Antonius - $150,000
Hand #171 - Rehne Pedersen has the button, and Antonius is forced all in for the big blind. The players flip over their cards, and Antonius has Ks-7s against Pedersen's pocket eights (8c-8s). Antonius needs to improve to stay alive.
The flop comes 9d-6c-3s, and Pedersen retains the lead. The turn card is the 3c, and Antonius needs to catch a king to survive. The river card is the Jc, and Patrik Antonius is eliminated in second place, earning $1,046,470.
Rehne Pedersen wins the 2005 WPT Bellagio Five Diamond World Poker Classic, winning $2,078,185, a gold-and-diamond bracelet, and a $25,500 entry into the season-ending WPT World Championship.
