Adam Friedman Eliminated in 18th Place ($25,340)
Adam Friedman raised to 105,000 in the hijack and Nitesh Rawtani called on the button which saw everyone else fold.
The flop rolled out J?7?6? and Friedman bet 285,000 while engaging in some friendly banter with Rawtani.
"I've got good cards," Friedman said.
"So do I," Rawtani responded "that's why i'm thinking of calling."
After some more thought, Rawtani called and the turn peeled off a 4?. Friedman moved all in for 310,000 and Rawtani called almost immediately.
Adam Friedman: A?A?10?9?5?
Nitesh Rawtani: A?9?7?4?2?
Rawtani held sevens and fours with the nut low, while Friedman held aces with the ace-high flush draw and an inferior low. The river peeled off the 4?, which was no help to Friedman as while his flush was completed, Rawtani made a full house.
The five-time bracelet winner wished his tablemates luck as he exited the tournament area.
