Kim Survives a Flip to Double
Level 21
: Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante
Siegfried Stoss raised to 25,000 under the gun and was called by Maik Dehmlow in middle position and Przemyslaw Szymanski in the hijack. De Han Kim then moved all in for 190,000 on the button and Stoss and Dehmlow folded, but Szymanski called to put Kim at risk.
De Han Kim: 10♥10♣ 
Przemyslaw Szymanski: K♠J♠
It was a race situation, and Kim came out on top after the board ran out 8♠2♥5♣4♣9♣ to give him the double up, while Szymanski, who won this event at last year's WSOP Europe, was left nursing a short stack.
