With 182,000– or about 11 big blinds, David Steicke from under the gun decided it was time to double up or go home. He shoved and got a caller from Jojo Tech all the way to the SB spot
Steicke: A♥ 4♣
Tech: 4♥ 4♠
With a three-outer, Steicke needed a miracle to survive in this one; no help came on the flop 8♠ 3♠ J♠ and none on the turn 5♣ and river 7♦ as well. Steicke is busted out of the main event in 10th place but received a nice $10,200 for his M.E. effort.
Tech now has around 1.3M in chips.
