Steicke Doubles Through Antonius

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: {a-Diamonds}{q-Clubs}
Antonius: {10-Diamonds}{10-Clubs}

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 {5-Diamonds}{q-Spades}{k-Diamonds} 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 {5-Hearts} turn and {3-Spades} 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.
