Razz

Perry Friedman is short-stacked following a Razz cooler versus Michael Trivett.

With their boards reading as follows,

Michael Trivett: {x-}{x-}/{2-}{3-}{a-}{9-}/{x-}
Perry Friedman:{x-}{x-}/{5-}{3-}{8-}{9-}/{x-}

Trivett had bet every street against Friedman, who called down, including a snap-call on seventh street.

Trivett unveiled his hole cards and showed {7-}{5-}{3-}{2-}{a-} to just beat Friedman's {7-}{6-}{5-}{4-}{3-}.

Trivett's stack grows to one of the larger ones in the room, while Friedman has work to do to remain in the tournament.

Kevin Song: {a-}{4-}/{7-}{3-}{2-}{2-}/{4-}

The action was discovered on seventh street and all three players checked. Dario Sammartino was first and tabled a seven-six low, but Song's seven-four low was better, which prompted Wang to muck, and Song was pushed the massive pot.
