That's Twice

For the second time in this very strange tournament, someone has folded kings preflop. The culprit this time is David Kim. He popped it to 30,000 preflop after Marlon Goonawardana had opened for 10,000. Marlon thought things over for a while, then put in a third raise to 80,000.

Kim went into the tank, talking to himself and to Goonawardana as he did so. "I've been told I'm never supposed to fold this hand preflop," said Kim. He asked Goonawardana if he would show his hand if Kim folded.

Goonawardana did not agree to do so, instead asking Kim if he really wanted to bubble. Time was eventually called, and with thirty seconds left on the clock, Kim open-mucked {K-Diamonds} {K-Hearts}.

Goonawardana did not show.
