Sabat Claims Steicke

[user67765]

David Steicke has just been eliminated from the feature table in the nearby TV studio, and he was kind enough to relay to us the details of his elimination.

Eddy Sabat had raised to 250 and Steicke called out of the big blind holding {Q-?}

. They saw a baby flop of {2-?}

and Steicke led out for 250. Sabat then raised to 550 and Steicke called.

The turn brought another deuce and again Steicke led out with a bet of 1,050. Sabat thought for a moment and made the call.

The turn was another small card and Steicke committed himself for all of his remaining 1,700 chips, believing that his opponent couldn't make the call without a deuce or big pair. Sabat went into the tank saying "I'm confused, and when I'm confused I usually call" before sliding his chips into the middle. It was a good call as Sabat tabled {A-?}
