Game:  Stud Hi-Lo

After the game switched to Stud Hi-Lo, Hal Klein got his short stack all in on third street against Adam Friedman.

Adam Friedman:  ()

And here’s how their hands finished:

Adam Friedman:  () ()
Hal Klein:  () ()

Klein picked up an open-ended seven-high straight draw (and low draw) on fifth street, but couldn’t complete his straight or pick up a qualifying low — Klein had to settle for a pair of threes for his high.

Unfortunately for him, Friedman made a six-high straight on seventh street for a high and a low to scoop the entire pot and eliminate Klein in fifth place.

Adam Friedman  –  70,000
Hal Klein  –  Eliminated in 5th Place

With 18 entries in this event, only the final two players will finish in the money:

1st:  $16,200
2nd:  $10,800

Shortly after Klein’s elimination, Level 15 came to an end, and Level 16 began with blinds of 800-1,600 (200 ante) and limits of 3,000-6,000.

With four players remaining, the average chip stack is about 67,500 (42 big blinds / 11 big bets).
