Jimmy Fricke got the last of it in on third against Joe Tehan.

Fricke Crippled

Level 23 : 15,000/30,000, 3,000 ante

On fifth street we found Jimmy Fricke betting out only to have Calvin Anderson raise. Levon Torosyan called, as did Fricke before a bet from Anderson on sixth pushed out Torosyan but kept Fricke in. On seventh Anderson fired again and Fricke called.

Torosyan: {X-}{X-} / {2-Clubs}{3-Clubs}{7-Diamonds}{3-Hearts}
Fricke: {X-}{X-} / {6-Spades}{5-Clubs}{A-Diamonds}{A-Spades} / {X-}
Anderson: {X-}{X-} / {5-Hearts}{4-Hearts}{K-Diamonds}{7-Hearts} / {X-}

Anderson tabled his {4-Diamonds}{4-Spades} / {9-Diamonds} as Fricke mucked the {5-} and was left crippled with just 26,000 in chips.

Joe Tehan had the bring-in and Eric Kurtzman completed with Calvin Anderson and Melissa Burr calling before Tehan re-raised to 30,000. All three players called as Tehan bet fourth and only Anderson called. Anderson then bet fifth and sixth with Tehan calling before seventh was checked.

Tehen: {X-}{X-} / {2-Spades}{A-Diamonds}{K-Clubs}{K-Diamonds} / {X-}
Kurtzman: {X-}{X-} / {Q-Diamonds}{6-Hearts} (folded on fourth)
Anderson: {X-}{X-} / {8-Diamonds}{5-Hearts}{A-Clubs}{8-Hearts} / {X-}
Burr: {X-}{X-} / {6-Diamonds}{J-Diamonds} (folded on fourth)

Anderson tabled his {K-Spades}{3-Spades}{3-Hearts} and Tehan mucked.

Game of Thrones?

Level 23 : 15,000/30,000, 3,000 ante

Jimmy Fricke jokingly asked the tournament director if Game of Thrones could be put on the TV above the tournament table, which currently sports Game 5 of the NBA finals.

"No!" Melissa Burr said. "I haven't seen the last episode!"

Anderson Gets the Sweeper

Level 23 : 15,000/30,000, 3,000 ante

Jimmy Fricke completed from the last position with {7-Clubs}, and Calvin Anderson defended his bring-in with {4-Diamonds}. Fricke kept up the aggression on fourth when he caught {3-Clubs}, while Anderson had {5-Diamonds}. It was Anderson taking the lead and betting the rest of the way though, after he paired with the {5-Spades}.

Anderson: {x-}{x-}/{4-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds}{5-Spades}{6-Clubs}
Fricke: {x-}{x-}/{7-Clubs}{3-Clubs}{j-Clubs}{j-Diamonds}

Anderson showed down {8-Clubs}{7-Spades}{6-Diamonds} for a straight and a low, and Fricke could only muse about having "so many outs."
