Botabayev Flushes Kim

Even the showdowns now are lacking much in the way of pizzazz. Darkhan Botabayev attempted to raise his button to 110,000, not realizing the blinds recently went up. He was forced to put in an additional 10,000 chips for a minimum-raise to 120,000. Big blind Mike Kim made the call.

Both players checked the {5-Hearts} {Q-Hearts} {J-Clubs} flop. When the turn fell a third heart, {K-Hearts}, Kim fired out the minimum, 60,000. Botabayev called to the river {2-Hearts}, where he called another 100,000 from Kim. Kim showed a flush with {9-?} {9-Hearts}, but Botabayev had the bigger flush with {J-Hearts} {7-Diamonds}. He won the pot.
