At the 2011 WSOP , he finished third in a mixed- variant H.ORSE tournament for more than $ 120,000. The following year Friedmann won an event at the 2012 WSOP played in Seven Card Stud Hi-Lo 8 or Better and secured a bracelet in addition to the prize money of around $ 270,000 . In early March 2014 he reached the final table at the main event of the World Poker Tour in Los Angeles and finished sixth, which was paid for around $ 200,000. At the 2016 WSOP , Friedman sat at two final tables that earned him over $ 200,000 in prize money. In June 2018, he won the Dealers Choice Championship at the 2018 WSOP and secured his second bracelet and the grand prize of almost $ 300,000. The following year Friedman prevailed again at this event and received more than $ 310,000 in prize money and another bracelet.
