Namhyung Kim Eliminated in 8th Place (€8,732)
Level 23
: Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante
Hokyiu Lee raised to 60,000 under the gun and Zhengfa Ye called in early position. Namhyung Kim then three-bet to 285,000 on the button and Lee put in a four-bet to 675,000.
Ye got out of the way, but Kim agonized over the decision for several minutes before sticking in his last 390,000.
Namhyung Kim: A♥K♥K♣10♦
Hokyiu Lee: A♠A♣9♦6♦
Lee had picked up aces again and Kim found no improvement on the 8♦9♣7♦ flop. The 2♠ turn left him looking only for one of the last two kings in the deck, but the river 4♦ was harmless for Lee as he sent Kim to the rail in eighth place.
