Trips Over Trips Sends Steele onto Day 2
Level 21
: 5,000/10,000, 0 ante
On a board of 4♥J♥10♦4♠, Michael Steele checked to Anthony Zinno, who bet 25,000 on the button. Steele then announced he was all in, which was enough to put Zinno all in for approximately 200,000 total.
Zinno burned up multiple time extensions as he weighed his decision, but eventually put in a reluctant call and hands were revealed.
Anthony Zinno: 4♣3♠ 
Michael Steele: K♥4♦
"I almost folded," Zinno said upon seeing the bad news.
The 6♥ river changed nothing and Steele was awarded the knockout with his superior kicker.
