Perry Friedman Eliminated

Somehow crippled to just 150 in chips, Perry Friedman found himself all in on the big blind with {Q-Diamonds}{8-Clubs}. Although it looked bleak with multiple opponents, second pair was enough on an {A-Diamonds}{5-Spades}{3-Spades}{Q-Hearts}{2-Diamonds} board to see the 2002 bracelet winner more than treble up to the 500 mark.

However, the resurgence didn't last long, Friedman soon all in again (this time for 350) with {4-Diamonds}{4-Spades} versus {A-Clubs}{A-Hearts}. No help on a four-less {K-Hearts}{Q-Spades}{10-Diamonds}{6-Clubs}{3-Diamonds} board, and he was dust.
