Gary Friedlander Eliminated in 2nd Place ($145,422)

Level 25 : 10,000/20,000, 3,000 ante
Gary Friedlander - 2nd place
Gary Friedlander - 2nd place

AJ Jejelowo opened to 40,000 from the button and Gary Friedlander made only his third three-bet of the heads-up duel, making it 140,000 to go. Jejelowo responded with an all-in shove with the big stack. Friedlander called all in for a total of 639,000 and the cards were on their backs.

Showdown
Friedlander: {A-Diamonds}{K-Diamonds}
Jejelowo: {A-Hearts}{9-Diamonds}

The flop came down {Q-Spades}{6-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds}, keeping Friedlander ahead and also giving him a flush draw. Jejelowo still needed to catch one of three nines in the deck to take the lead. The {A-Clubs} turn changed nothing, but the {9-Spades} spiked on the river to lock it up the tournament for Jejelowo.

Instead of doubling up and taking the chip lead, Garry Friedlander is out as the runner-up for $145,422.
