Mike Stecker Eliminated in 2nd Place ($78,400)

The final had came with Mike Stecker raising off the button to almost 100,000 and Kristian Lunardi calling.

Lunardi checked the {A-Hearts}

"Sicko", said Stecker. After counting off the calling amount he made the call. The turn was the {8-Spades}

and Lunardi instantly announced all in.

This sent Stecker into the tank and after a good while of tanking he looked over to the PokerNews reporters and said, "You guys aren't going to blog this up, if I call will you". He continued to muttered numbers and sums out loud and finally said, "I can't fold, I call".

He tabled {9-Hearts}
