Ivey Sends Friedman into the Tank
Level 15
Phil Ivey:

Adam Friedman: /

Picking action up on fifth street with several bets in the middle already, Phil Ivey called a bet from Adam Friedman, then on sixth street after Friedman bet again, Ivey came with a raise, which Friedman called after a brief pause.
Friedman then checked seventh street and Ivey continued betting, which sent Friedman deep into the tank. The three-time $10,000 Dealer's Choice champion apologized to his tablemates as he spent over three minutes contemplating a decision.
Ultimately he chose to preserve that last bet and fold, telling Ivey, "I want to know that one later".
