Steicke Silenced by Set

After some heavy preflop action, David Steicke moved all in for his last 9,950 on a flop of {A-Spades}{Q-Clubs}{8-Hearts}. His opponent asked for a count before making the call.

Steicke tabled {A-Clubs}{K-Spades} for top pair and his opponent revealed {Q-Diamonds}{Q-Spades} for a set of queens.

"What were you waiting for?" barked Steicke after seeing his opponent's holding.

The turn was the {J-Hearts} which gave Steicke a small sweat, but the miracle didn't arrive as the {8-Spades} fell on the river to bring the WSOP to an early end for Steicke.
