. His opponent, Edward Hatzakortzian, was on the button and went into the tank.
After thinking for a few moments, he began thinking out loud: "If you had three-four, why would you go so hard?"
"That's what she said!" replied Friedman.
Hatzakortzian went on, talking about how he had a lot of outs. Friedman asked if he was on a flush draw. Hatzakortzian answered somewhat affirmatively before moving on to saying 50,000 was simply such a large bet, saying he would have called quickly had the bet been half as much. Eventually, he folded.
"What'd you think I had, a lower set?" Friedman asked. "Did you have six-six?" he said as he flashed ![]()
for a set of fives. As Friedman collected the pot, there was some table talk about whether Hatzakortzian had thought Friedman had a set, whether Hatzakortzian had one himself, or whether both players did, in fact, have sets. The resolution was not fully reached as the dealer had shuffled the cards and it became time to deal the next hand.
