Thorson Flops Full House to Eliminate Friedman
Level 21
: 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante
Taylor Howard opened for 50,000 from early position and was called by Ryan Thorson on the button before Adam Friedman three-bet jammed for 151,000 from the small blind.
Action was on Eric Eelkema who came over the top from the big blind and Howard folded while Thorson called off his 252,000 stack.
Eric Eelkema: 
Ryan Thorson: 
Adam Friedman: 
Thorson was ahead with his pocket nines and he couldn't have asked for a better flop 
as it gave him a full house.
The 
turn kept Friedman's tournament hopes alive but the 
river ended his tournament.
