Big O
Adam Friedman raised from early position to 25,000. Action folded over the short-stacked Brian Rast who raised it up to 80,000 with about 50,000 behind.
"There's my sleeper pick," all of a sudden Allen Kessler had showed up and pointed out Brian Rast was his fantasy pick this year.
"Brian Rast is no sleeper. What has this world come to that Brian Rast is a sleeper pick?" replied Friedman while he thought over his decision.
"He doesn't usually play, I had inside information," said Kessler.
"You mean you called him? That's called direct information Allen," Friedman said, still thinking.
"This is your chance to gamble and beat me. Instead of picking me off the rest of the night, get it all right here," said Rast.
"All my dreams can come true in one evening," replied Friedman. "You want to know one of my biggest fears? Allen Kessler beating me heads up for a bracelet. Imagine that as a poker trivia question. 'Who did Allen Kessler beat for a bracelet,' and it's your name."
"Alright, you can have this one," said Friedman, who folded, much to the delight of both Rast and Kessler.
