WSOP Bracelet Winners Collide -- Only One Will Survive
Well, that's all she wrote for 2012 World Series of Poker bracelet winner Nick Jivkov. He was on his second bullet today (fifth overall), and just fell at the hands of another bracelet winner, Adam Friedman.
We missed the hand, but Friedman was kind enough to fill us in on the details. It happened when Jivkov opened for 500 from early position and Friedman three-bet to 1,125. The button called, as did Jivkov, and three players saw a flop of 
with two spades. Jivkov checked, Friedman bet 1,375, and the button folded. Jivkov made the call an offsuit 
hit the turn.
Jivkov checked for a second time and Friedman bet 2,875. Jivkov tanked for a solid two minutes before check-raising all in, and Friedman snap-called with 
. Jivkov tabled 
for a gutshot, which he wouldn't hit as the river blanked.
That does it for Jivkov's time at the MSPT FireKeepers, though there is a good chance we'll see him next month at the Venetian stop in Las Vegas.
