Kim Off to Good Start
Donghyun 'Tommy' Kim is off to a decent start after winning a decent three-way early pot. Following an early position open to 450, Kim called from one seat over before a player in the cutoff three-bet to 1,500 in total, which deterred no one, with both the original raiser and Kim making the call.
The 
flop was checked all around and the dealer burned and turned the 
. This saw the original early position raiser take a stab for 2,350 with Kim then re-raising to 5,600 in total. That folded out the player in the cutoff and after mulling it over, Kim's opponent made the call to bring the action heads-up to the 
river.
Both remaining players checked, with the early position player showing down 
, but that was not enough to best Kim's 
and Kim pulled in a decent pot to climb to a little over 40,000.
