Given the immense success that Patrik Antonius has enjoyed in the poker world over the past decade or so, it's hard to believe that he hasn't taken down a major poker tournament in nearly eight years.

Despite making tens of millions of dollars over his career, Patrik Antonius only has one major tournament title to his name - the 2005 EPT Baden Classic, which he took down for $343,366 in October of 2005.

Antonius, who is arguably one of the top 3-4 poker players in the world, has not been able to close out another major tournament since 2005, despite a couple of very close calls (2nd in 2012 $250,000 Aussie Millions event, 2nd in 2005 Five Diamond World Poker Classic, 3rd in 2007 WSOP $10k Pot Limit Omaha Championship). Antonius currently has over $5.3 million in total lifetime tournament cashes.
