Friedmutter Takes His Stand

Level 17 : 1,500/3,000, 400 ante

With the action folded around to his hijack seat, Douglas Friedmutter open-shoved for his last 33,200. Right next door, Melih Birdal reraised all in over the top, and the two men were heads up as the cards were turned up:

Friedmutter: {A-Clubs} {3-Spades}
Birdal: {K-Hearts} {K-Spades}

"Well, I got outs," Friedmutter said in a good case of foreshadowing. The dealer ripped off a {A-Diamonds} {2-Spades} {10-Spades} flop to pull him into a big lead, and the turn {2-Diamonds} and river {6-Hearts} locked up his double. He's up to 75,000 now with many thanks to that timely ace.
