Friedman Stuck in Reverse

Level 3 : 100/200, 0 ante

World Series of Poker bracelet winner and Heartland Poker Tour champ Adam Friedman drove four hours from Ohio last night to play his first-ever MSPT. He opted to rest up on Day 1a, so today marks his debut. Unfortunately for him, things aren't going quite as planned as he's down to less than half the starting stack.

In a recent hand, there was around 1,500 in the pot and a board reading {a-Hearts}{k-Diamonds}{j-Spades}{k-Clubs} when a player checked to Friedman, who bet 525. A player behind called, the other player folded, and it was heads up to the {5-Diamonds} river, which they both checked.

"You're good," Friedman admitted, which prompted his opponent to tabled the {a-Spades}{8-Hearts}. Friedman mucked and inventoried his remaining chips.
