Prahlad's Stack Pilfered

Level 10 : 400/800, 100 ante

Just as we were reporting Prahlad Friedman's steady progress, two hands in rapid succession suddenly erased all of the fruits of his day's labor.

In the first, an overpair vs. two pair situation resulted in the loss of the majority of Friedman's stack, knocking him back to less than 5,000. Soon after he was all in with {A-}{7-} against a player holding {A-}{6-}, and his opponent spiked a six to send Friedman to the rail about a hundred spots shy of the cash.
