After changing tables immediately from a grueling match with Di Dang (Urindanger) Patrick Antonius sat with another like-minded aggressive online player in slaktarn who eliminated Ugadabugada in but a single hand and had been waiting on the sidelines to see who would join him at the final table.

You got to wonder if the slug-fest patrick just finished with Urindanger, had anything to do with his declining slaktarns offer for a deal as the tournament got underway. Patrick quickly, (but politely) declined to the detriment of his bankroll, as slaktarn went on to oust Patrick in about 90 hands or 40 minutes of play.
