Wiechers Eliminated by Steenkamp
Level 1
: Blinds 100/200, 200 ante
With 5,500 in the middle to the J?6?5? flop, it checked to Nico Wiechers who bet 3,000 from an early position. Jonathan Hoal called on the button and Dirk Steenkamp check-raised to 9,000. Wiechers then moved all-in and Hoal folded.
"Oh Nico, you have a set?" Steenkamp sighed, then declared "okay, all in call" and pushed forward the chips.
Nico Wiechers: 6?5? 
Dirk Steenkamp: A?A?
"Come on, pair the board!" Steenkamp demanded and his wish was granted on the Q? turn and Q? river for the first casualty of the day.
