David Steicke has just taken a hit to his chip stack after running into a monster hand. The flop was {4-Hearts}

{4-Hearts}

{2-Diamonds}

{5-Diamonds}

and the action checked to Steicke, under the gun, who fired 700. His opponent in the small blind check-raised to 2,600, which sent Steicke into the tank for some soul-reading think time.

Steicke decided to commit all of his chips, but his opponent snap called with {A-Spades}

{A-Spades}

{3-Clubs}

for the flopped straight. Steicke just shrugged and revealed {A-Diamonds}

{A-Diamonds}

{4-Spades}

.

The turn was the {8-Hearts}

{8-Hearts}

and the river the {7-Spades}

{7-Spades}

to leave Steicke with around 5,000 in chips.
