Amarapu, Vornicu Eliminate Friedman

Level 12 : 1,500/3,000, 500 ante
Adam Friedman
Adam Friedman

We found Adam Friedman all in on fifth streeth with {3-Hearts}{7-Diamonds}{a-Hearts} up. He was up against Vasu Amarapu, who had three to a wheel, and Valentin Vornicu, who didn't have much but picked up queens on sixth.

Vornicu: {x-}{x-}/{q-Clubs}{7-Spades}{2-Hearts}{q-Hearts}
Amarapu: {x-}{x-}/{a-Clubs}{2-Clubs}{5-Diamonds}{10-Spades}
Friedman: {x-}{x-}/{3-Hearts}{7-Diamonds}{a-Hearts}{9-Hearts}

Bets went into the side pot between Amarapu and Vornicu and both of those players checked on the end. Vornicu showed {k-Diamonds}{q-Spades}{4-Hearts} for trip queens and no low. Amarapu had {a-Diamonds}{7-Hearts}{6-Hearts} for aces and a seven-low and Friedman couldn't beat either of those with {a-Spades}{q-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}, good for just aces.

At a neighboring table, "Miami" John Cernuto is up to 95,000, which he said came courtesy of a monster pot where he made quad sevens.
