Kim Picks Up Aces to Double Through Clifford
Level 9
: 600/1,200, 1,200 ante
Daniel Kim opened to 3,500 from the button before Michael Clifford jammed for 24,500 total from the small blind. Kim called and the players revealed their cards:
Kim - 
Clifford - 
Kim was in good position to double, while Clifford was looking for a miracle to score the knockout. Clifford picked up a gutshot straight draw when the board came 
, but he paired his jack on the 
river which wasn't good enough.
