Patrik Antonius Issues Challenge to Online Superstars
In the sort of gauntlet throwing that gets practically every online poker forum salivating, Antonius calls out some of the best young online players for a game of cards.

On the back to a promising start to the World Series, Patrik Antonius has decided to offer another challenge. While only weeks back Antonius offered to play heads-up with Doyle Brunson, he’s now called out some of the younger online pros for a spot of high stakes heads-up.
The latest challenge came on Patrik’s blog, where he said the following:
“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. All they do is hide behind their computer screens, scared to play anyone that they think is any good. I have not played Heads Up No Limit on Full Tilt for a long time and have hardly any experience playing it compared to these guys, yet, they refuse to play me and are dodging me in all games.
Durrr, OMGClayAiken, trex313, Urindanger, I am looking for action and I want a chance to play against the best. I will play any of you in any game on Full Tilt, I will be waiting, hopefully your up for the challenge.”
With Antonius’ recent signing to Full Tilt Poker it’s possible that the action might be drying up for the Finnish pro. Either way, should the pros want to take on the Nordic gambler, we might well see some of the highest level play ever.
