Buck Downs Kim in Two Hands

Level 19 : 5,000/10,000, 1,000 ante

Kenneth Buck open-shoved for 278,000 from under the gun and Soo Jo Kim called from a few seats over, all other players folded.

Kenneth Buck: {8-Hearts}{8-Clubs}
Soo Jo Kim: {A-Clubs}{K-Hearts}

The board came {6-Clubs}{6-Hearts}{4-Spades}{4-Diamonds}{5-Hearts} and Buck held up, leaving Kim very short. Kim shoved the next hand with the {A-Clubs}{10-Hearts} and Buck called in the big blind with {4-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds}. It was all good for Kim on the {Q-Clubs}{Q-Diamonds}{5-Clubs} flop and the {7-Diamonds} turn, but the {3-Hearts} fell on the river and left him empty-handed.

While table six broke, Zhe Li also ran out of chips and the field was reduced to the last 39 hopefuls.
