Amarapu, Vornicu Eliminate Friedman
Level 12
: 1,500/3,000, 500 ante

up. He was up against Vasu Amarapu, who had three to a wheel, and Valentin Vornicu, who didn't have much but picked up queens on sixth.

Amarapu: /
Friedman: /
Bets went into the side pot between Amarapu and Vornicu and both of those players checked on the end. Vornicu showed 
for trip queens and no low. Amarapu had 
for aces and a seven-low and Friedman couldn't beat either of those with 
, good for just aces.
At a neighboring table, "Miami" John Cernuto is up to 95,000, which he said came courtesy of a monster pot where he made quad sevens.
