Stick It to Steicke

Steicke - everyone else not obeying
Steicke - everyone else not obeying
David Steicke is in some serious trouble.

He and Vanessa Rousso saw a {K-Spades} {7-Spades} {J-Spades} flop, and Steicke bet out 90,000. Rousso pushed, Steicke quietly called, and they were on their backs.

Steicke: {K-Clubs} {J-Clubs}
Rousso: {9-Spades} {10-Spades}

Turn: {9-Hearts}
River: {8-Spades}

"Even more of a flush," chuckled Steicke as the straight flush came in and he paid up. Rousso is up to 400,000; Steicke is down to 220,000.

A few hands later, Steicke reraised to 100,000 from the big blind to a 25,000 raise from Anthony Giuetti under the gun. Giuetti thought about it for a while, and went to raise again -- but Steicke had mucked his hand before Giuetti's chips had reached the felt. Now down to 120,000.
