Friedman Induces a Shove

Level 6 : 200/400, 50 ante

A player opened for 1,200 in early position, and Adam Friedman three-bet to 3,525 from his left. Everyone else folded, and the opener called. The dealer spread a flop of {3-Clubs}{3-Hearts}{q-Clubs}, and the first player checked. Friedman bet 3,200, only to see his opponent raise to 10,000. Friedman thought a bit and then clicked back to 17,000.

"Is that a reraise?" Friedman's opponent asked.

"It is a legal raise," the dealer confirmed.

"All you had to do was say all in," the first player said, shaking his head, seemingly perplexed by the play. Friedman had about 17,000 more behind, and his opponent tanked about three minutes before saying he was all in. Friedman called immediately.

Friedman: {k-Clubs}{k-Diamonds}
Opponent: {a-}{j-}

Friedman needed to fade just three outs and did so as it ran out {3-Diamonds} then {6-Diamonds}.

Players are on break for 10 minutes.
