Berry found a straight on the turn to take the lead, and there was no miracle card on the river for Friedman, who became the first player to exit since the redraw for $23,000.
William Flachsbart is the first player after the redraw to double up after he put his tournament life at risk. Flachsbart saw the action folded round to him in the small blind and he raised, Richard Behling moved all in and Flachsbart made the call.

Behling's king was dominated, but he picked up a flush draw on the flop to increase his outs. But it wasn't to be as the board bricked to give Flachsbart a full double-up.
