Kim Trips Over Ace-Queen

Wooka Kim has been nursing her short stack all day, and she finally found a profitable spot to stick it in there with {A-Diamonds} {Q-Diamonds}. She was looked up by a player with {K-Spades} {10-Spades}, and things were looking good for Kim.

Things would get even better, too. The flop brought two more queens to give her a hammer lock on the hand and leave her opponent drawing dead to two running cards. The king that hit fourth street, however, was one of those out cards, and anyone who's spent time around poker wouldn't be surprised at what happened next. A second king landed on the river, drawing a big simultaneous, "Awwww!" from the crowd of spectators standing elbow-to-elbow on the rail just behind Kim.

Runner-runner is enough to seal Kim's fate, and she has been sent to the rail a few tables shy of the money. "And we've lost one of our very favorite players," Tournament Director Danny McDonagh said.

There are now three ladies left in the field, and they are all at Table 7 together.
