Friedman Sends One to Break Early

Level 3 : 150/300, 25 ante

Small blind Adam Friedman had 1,100 in front of him and was facing an all-in shove from an opponent in the big blind.

"I'm probably calling," Friedman said.

After getting a count of 8,125, he did just that.

Friedman: {a-Hearts}{k-Spades}
Big blind: {k-Hearts}{k-Diamonds}

The {a-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds}{7-Clubs} flop gave Friedman a massive lead with aces up, and the {q-Diamonds} turn wasn't the paint his opponent was looking for. The {a-Spades} river improved Friedman to a boat to secure the knockout.
