Friedman Gets Very Short; Recovers Some Chips

Level 8

Razz

Adam Friedman: {x-}{x-} / {5-}{6-}{7-}{10-} / {x-}
Mike Matusow: {x-}{x-} / {2-}{k-}{a-}{k-} / {x-}

Mike Matusow hesitated to bet seventh street against a short-stacked Adam Friedman, who had a favouring board. Both eventually checked and had the {8-}{5-}{3-} for an eighty-five as the winning hand.

"I am not going to bet my last 5k when he could well have a seven," Matusow said in table chat.

Andrew Kelsall: {x-}{x-} / {3-}{k-}{10-} fold on fifth
Adam Friedman: {x-}{x-} / {3-}{4-}{j-}

Friedman then bet against Andrew Kelsall, who called on fourth and tanked on fifth. In a very jovial atmosphere, both talked about the possible outcome and Friedman mentioned "you could already be drawing dead, I think you should fold." Kelsall referred to some additional bonus equity for knocking out the three-time champ of this event but eventually folded.
