[user75032]

Tae Jun Noh

We're guessing that Tae Jun Noh didn't plan to be all in forty-five minutes into the tournament when he arrived here earlier this afternoon. But that's exactly what happened. With 2,600 in the middle on a flop of {9-Diamonds}

{9-Diamonds}

{3-Clubs}

{7-Diamonds}

, Noh was all in for 6,675 and called. It was a bad spot for Noh; his {6-Spades}

{6-Spades}

{8-Hearts}

was drawing against his opponent's {Q-Diamonds}

{Q-Diamonds}

{Q-Hearts}

. He promptly filled his straight with a turn {10-Diamonds}

{10-Diamonds}

, then dodged the remaining diamonds in the deck when the river fell {Q-Clubs}

{Q-Clubs}

.

The double-up restores Noh's stack to about 15,000.
