Friedman No More; Asti Joins Big Stacks

Level 6 : Blinds 300/600, 600 ante
Michael Asti
Michael Asti

The seat that formerly belonged to Adam Friedman was now occupied by another player and Michael Asti one seat over was hovering on a large tower of chips. Asti was kind enough to recall the details as to what happened.

According to Asti, he flat-called a three-bet to 3,600 while on the button as the initial raiser and three-bettor Friedman in the cutoff called. On a jack-high flop with two diamonds, Friedman bet 4,000 and Asti raised to 14,000, then called the shove by Friedman.

It was the {j-Hearts}{j-Diamonds} for top set by Asti against the {k-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds} of Friedman for the second nut flush draw. Two red cards followed but they were both hearts, sending Friedman to the rail prior to the dinner break.
