Scandinavian Battle Leads to Antonius Double

Level 10
: Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante

Patrik Antonius was all in with a short stack from the big blind against Peter Kvisthammar in the small blind, who had him covered.
Patrik Antonius: 9?8?
Peter Kvisthammar: 6?6?
Antonius took a lead in the flip as the flop landed A?8?Q? to pair his eight and nothing changed on the 10?4? runout to earn the Finnish poker legend a double through his Swedish opponent.
"Don't want to enter Day 2 with a starting stack!" a table mate commented.
