Steve Biko Eliminated

There will be no gold bracelet this year for Steve Biko. On a flop of {j-Clubs} {8-Hearts} {7-Diamonds}, he got in a raising war with Michael Watson that ended with Biko calling Watson's raise to 12,000. On the turn {j-Diamonds}, Watson moved all in and Biko called. Biko held an overpair with {Q-Diamonds} {Q-Spades}, but it was far behind Watson's {8-Spades} {8-Diamonds}. There was no queen on the river. Biko is out and Watson picks up a big pot to move to 53,000 in chips.
