Maruo Scores a Double
Level 19
: Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante
Ignacio Sagra opened for 20,000 in cutoff and got called by Junhyoung Ki on the button. Small blind player Tasuku Maruo went beyond by going all-in for 86,000. Sagra was mulling over his actions and looked at Ki who seemed like he was going to make the call. Sagra folded and, sure enough, Ki made the call taking the players to showdown.
Tasuku Maruo: K♥Q♥ 
Junhyoung Ki: K♣10♠
Maruo was ahead. The flop paired the board with J♠3♥J♦. Nothing changed with the runout of 7♠9♥ doubling Maruo up and leaving Ki with only 7,000 behind.
