Friedrich Takes From Hennigan

Stephen Friedrich raised from under the gun to 800, and only John Hennigan made the call, a couple of seats to his left.

The hand then played out in a style akin to speed chess.

Friedrich continued with a bet of 1,200, which Hennigan quickly raised to 3,000. Friedrich called immediately, and the two took a turn.

As quick as a flash, Friedrich had check-called a bet of 3,700 on the 2♦ turn, before both players then checked the 8♥ river.

Friedrich turned over J♥J♦, which was enough to lay claim to the pot as Hennigan mucked his cards.
