The Steicke magic has run out. Jeppe Drivsholm, Tian Chen, and David Steicke took a three-handed flop of {7-Clubs}

. There were 90,000 chips in the middle, so when Drivsholm checked, Chen decided to come out with a bet of 60,000. Only Steicke called.

The turn was the {A-Spades}

. Chen checked it over to Steicke, who bet 100,000, leaving himself just 12,500 behind. Chen raised it up to 225,000 and Steicke made the call that he had priced himself into making.

Steicke: {J-Clubs}

Chen:

Steicke showed a pair and a flush draw and had been out-turned by Chen's pair of aces. He needed a jack, a seven, or a club to avoid bubbling the TV table. Chen started calling, "Red deuce! Red deuce!" and sure enough, the river was the {2-Hearts}

. Steicke is headed to the rail to collect $16,208. As a result of his elimination, play has stopped for the day with 20 minutes remaining on the clock in Level 19.
