Sunday night saw a poker game at Full Tilt Poker was a game that might not be forgotten soon by one poker player who tried a bluff that cost him.

Six players were seated at a Pot-Limit Omaha $200/$400 two of these players were Gus Hansen and Dustin Dirksen who are well known at Full Tilt Poker.

Two other players at the table were Patrik Atonius and David Bentamine; it was the poker player Antonius that got the game going when he raised $1,400 right after the cut-off. Benyamine came in for a re-raise of $4,800 and Antonius called.

When the flop came with 2d-5s-Qs both Benyamine and Antonius checked, the 5d hit on the turn when Antonius made his move; he raised $28,400 and Benyamine called.

Antonius raised $42,400 and the Jc fell on the river, Benyamine called, Antonius cards were the first shown with a 4d-4h-kh-9d. Benyamine was holdin 8c-5c-Ad-6d and with three of a kind 5's took the pot of $151,797.

At this end of this poker battle between Antonius and Benyamine the bluff Antonius was trying to play off cost him $75,000, which could be a poker game he will long remember.
