Kim Gets Paid
Level 9
: Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante
Hyun Kim raised 6,500 under the gun, and Timothy Adams called in the cutoff before Kayhan Mokri defended the big blind.
When the K♣9♠3♦ flop hit the felt, Mokri checked and Kim continued for 7,000. Adams quickly got out of the way before Mokri tossed in a call.
The 9♥ turn was checked through to see the 7♦ river. Mokri checked once more before Kim fired a bet of 14,000. Mokri only took a couple of seconds before matching the bet.
Kim tabled A♠K♠, flopping top pair, top kicker and Mokri mucked his hand.
