There Will Be No Friedman Four-Peat

Nível 9

For the first time since 2017, there will be a new champion of the WSOP $10,000 Dealer's Choice event, as Adam Friedman's reign has come to an end.

No-Limit Hold'em

Friedman limped the button and Mike Matusow raised to 6,000 in the big blind. Friedman then moved all in with Matusow slightly covered and Matusow called off for a bit under 60,000.

Mike Matusow:
Adam Friedman:

The board came , bringing Matusow a full house, and leaving the three-time defending champion on fumes.

Omaha Hi-Lo

On the next hand, Friedman got his last 9,000 chips in on the button against Richard Bai in the big blind.

Adam Friedman:
Richard Bai:

The brought Friedman second pair and a straight draw, but he was behind Bai's pair of queens, and there was no low possible for hope of a split pot.

The turn gave a second pair to Bai, and left Friedman with just the river to keep him alive.

The river brought no help to Friedman, and with that his nearly four-year reign as champion of the WSOP $10,000 Dealer's Choice came to an end, with applause and a hug from Matusow.

Mike Matusow hesitated to bet seventh street against a short-stacked Adam Friedman, who had a favouring board. Both eventually checked and had the for an eighty-five as the winning hand.

"I am not going to bet my last 5k when he could well have a seven," Matusow said in table chat.

Andrew Kelsall: / fold on fifth
Adam Friedman: /

Friedman then bet against Andrew Kelsall, who called on fourth and tanked on fifth. In a very jovial atmosphere, both talked about the possible outcome and Friedman mentioned "you could already be drawing dead, I think you should fold."
