Kim Wins a Small One
Level 26
: Blinds 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante
Marco Johnson raised to 130,000 from under the gun, and was called by Pyeongkang Kim in the cutoff and Michael Letal in the big blind.
The flop came 6♦9♥9♠ and it checked to Kim, who bet 160,000. Only Johnson continued to see the 3♣ turn.
Both players checked, and the A♦ fell on the river where both players checked again. Kim tabled A♥J♦ for two pair, aces and nines, besting the 4♣4♦ of Johnson.
