Hui Slows Down Friedman
Phil Hui: A♠A♣/10♦10♠J♠10♥
Adam Friedman: XxXx/7♠6♣4♦9♠ - folded sixth street
Scott Seiver: XxXx/2♦ - folded bring-in
After Adam Friedman completed on third street, Phil Hui made it two bets to go, shedding Scott Seiver's bring-in, but Friedman called.
Hui asked if he could double bet on fourth street, which is no longer allowed, but still bet and got a call from Friedman.
He continued betting on fifth street with Friedman calling to progress on with the big bet rounds, but when Hui caught a third ten on sixth street, Friedman just scooped up his cards and tossed them to the muck before Hui had even put out a bet.
"You run really pure in this game," commented the defending champion.
"Oh, I didn't have the best hand to start?" said Hui who then showed his aces in the hole for a full house.
Meanwhile, Seiver was eliminated shortly after by Yueqi Zhu.
