Steicke Doubles Through Antonius

Posted 1 day 2 hours ago • Level 17: 15,000-30,000, 3,000 ante

The details escaped us, but we do know that David Steicke got his stack all in and was racing against Patrik Antonius.

Steicke:
Antonius:

Antonius was ahead with his pocket tens, which meant Steicke, who won this event back in 2009, needed to improve to avoid becoming the eighth-place finisher.

Studio 3 was eerily quiet as the flop came down to give Steicke the lead with a pair of kings. The Australian let the slightest of smiles cross his face and then watch as the turn and river propelled him to a double.

Unfortunately we're not sure of the counts (limited access and no announcer), but we'll be sure to grab updated counts at the first available opportunity.
