It’s hard not to notice the six-foot teddy bear watching over Patrik Antonius’ shoulder at the Finn’s Las Vegas home. It’s the same bear that was sitting in his suite in the Bellagio back in 2006 when I first interviewed him.

It seems strangely significant, as it’s one of the few things in his life that has remained the same over the past three years. In many ways the Finnish online legend’s life has changed almost beyond recognition.There is no doubt he looks much the same.

The shaved head and cut-glass cheekbones giving him an intense brooding look and his piercing stare adds an air of confrontation as we begin the interview.
