Choi Left on Fumes
Level 37
: Blinds 400,000/800,000, 800,000 ante
Action folded around to Andrew Ahn, who moved all-in from the small blind for 7,005,000, and this sent Kevin Choi, who was in the big blind, into the tank and he eventually made the call.
Andrew Ahn: K♣Q♥
Kevin Choi: A♠5♥
The flop came 2♠Q♣7♣ to send Ahn into the lead, and when the 9♥ peeled off on the turn Choi needed to hit an ace to send Ahn packing. The 8♣ brick came on the river to send the pot to Ahn and leave Choi with a bowl of rice on just over a small blind.
