Defending Champion Friedman Eliminated
Nathaniel Katzoff: K♠10♦7♣/9♣Q♠J♣7♦
Adam Friedman: XxXxXx/10♥5♠Q♦7♠
David Lieberman: XxXxXx/4♦A♠6♥7♥
Adam Friedman completed David Lieberman's bring-in and was called by Nathaniel Katzoff. Lieberman defended his bring-in as well.
Lieberman picked up an ace on fourth and led out with a bet which was called by both opponents. He bet again on fifth street and got raised by Friedman. the raise didn't shed Katzoff and Lieberman called as well.
Sixth street saw Lieberman slow down, but then he and Katzoff called a bet by Friedman.
On seventh street, Liberman checked, Friedman checked, and Katzoff now bet, prompting Friedman to pound the table in frustration.
After some thought, Lieberman made the call, and Friedman did as well, begrudgingly tossing in his calling chips.
Katzoff showed a king-high straight for the winner, with Friedman claiming he had aces up.
The defending champion was left with just 6,000 chips which would evaporate shortly after, meaning a new champion will be crowned on Wednesday.
