Friedman Zooms To 60,000

On the last two hands of the break, Perry Friedman saw his 25,000-chip stack soar to 65,000!

First, Friedman knocked out one opponent holding {A-Spades}{8-Hearts}{7-Clubs}{3-Hearts} on a board of {4-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds}{5-Spades}{J-Clubs}{Q-Clubs}.

The very next hand, Friedman raised the button and stated, "I'm not trying to steal, I'm just trying to get more money!" Friedman would in fact do so when his {A-Spades}{A-Hearts}{8-Hearts}{3-Clubs} took down another sizeable pot while eliminating a player when the board ran out {8-Clubs}{Q-Hearts}{5-Spades}{4-Clubs}{K-Clubs}.
