Assadourian Sours Over Steicke

Seven players took a monotone flop of {6-Hearts} {4-Hearts} {3-Hearts}. Action checked over to Eric Assadourian and he fired 9,600. Bill Busine raised out of the big blind position to 20,000 when action got back to him and then David Steicke made the call from middle position. Everyone else had folded except for Assadourian and action fell back on him. He moved all in for 107,500 total. Busine mucked before Steicke got the count verified. Eventually, he made the call.

Steicke held {Q-Hearts} {J-Hearts} against Assadourian's {A-Hearts} {9-Hearts}.

The turn was the {4-Clubs} and the river the {5-Clubs}. Assadourian's flush was good enough to knock Steicke all the way back down to 40,000 chips. Assadourian is soaring with 245,000 chips now.
