Hand #82 - Jon Friedberg Eliminated in 3rd Place ($101,276)

Hand #82 - There is a dead button in seat 2, Spegal limps from the small blind for 30,000, and Friedberg checks his option. The flop comes {10-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds}{2-Spades}, Spegal bets 60,000, Friedberg raises to 240,000, Spegal reraises, Friedberg moves all in, and Spegal quickly calls with {10-Hearts}{6-Clubs} -- top pair. Friedberg shows {Q-Diamonds}{2-Clubs} for an overcard, bottom pair, and a backdoor flush draw. Friedberg needs to improve to stay alive.

The turn card is the {9-Spades}, and Friedberg needs a queen, a deuce, or a diamond.

The river card is the {J-Hearts}, and Mike Spegal takes the pot.

Jon Friedberg is eliminated in third place, earning $101,276. The next player eliminated will receive $155,645 for second place, while the winner will take home $252,290.
