Mike Kim Eliminated

Mike Kim played most of this tournament short-stacked, grinding, grinding and grinding some more. Finally he gets dealt pocket aces -- and of course they get cracked. Wei Sha's pocket eights overtook Kim's aces on the turn, {2-Clubs}

{2-Clubs}

{2-Hearts}

{Q-Spades}

{8-Spades}

{J-Clubs}

, giving Sha his second double-up in short order. That beatdown left Kim with 4,500 chips, not even one big blind. He was all in on the next hand with {6-Clubs}

{6-Clubs}

{7-Clubs}

and lost to Joe Ker's {A-Clubs}

{A-Clubs}

{J-Spades}

.

Kim exits in 37th place.
