The Steicke Secret: "They're Only Chips!"

David Steicke and Eric Assadourian

It's turning into the David Steicke show here, but when someone is playing nearly every hand, aggressively, with multiple opponents, in big pots, it's hard to look elsewhere when the other tables are sitting back and enjoying the slow structure of this tournament.

In a recent pot David Steicke opened with a raise to 2,400 from the cutoff, with Eric Assadourian calling on the button, and Quinn Do and Nam Le out of the blinds.

They saw a flop of {J-Clubs}{6-Spades}{J-Spades} and it was checked to Steicke who fired a 3,600 continuation bet into his three opponents. Assadourian was the lone caller.

The turn brought the {2-Clubs} and Steicke fired 7,200. "You don't get scared that I called you?" quizzed Assadourian. "Alright nice hand," he said as he folded his hand.

"They're only chips!" quipped Steicke as he extended his lead.
