Steicke Straightens His Opponent

[user72279]

David Steicke, who we overheard saying was not going to even play the Main Event due to a prior commitment is now up to 96,000.

He raised to 1,700 UTG and was called by the player directly to his left. The flop came {10-Hearts}

and Steicke popped out a continuation bet of 2,600 only to see his opponent raise it up to 6,700. Steicke made the call, and they were off to the turn, which was the {j-Hearts}

.

Stecke checked and insta-called a 10,000 bet, and when the {8-Diamonds}

dropped on the turn, he decided it was time to do some betting of his own, firing out a 21,000 bet. His opponent tanked for a bit, before calling and then mucking when he saw Steicke's {q-Diamonds}
