Ko Proves Unstoppable as Pawlenko Falls Victim to Cracked Aces
Level 19
: Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
David Dongwoo Ko and Thierry Pawlenko went to a flop of K♣8♣7♣ when Pawlenko got his last 300,000 in the middle from the big blind and Ko put him at risk in middle position.
Thierry Pawlenko: A♣A♠ 
David Dongwoo Ko: Q♣9♣
Pawlenko showed down aces with the nut flush draw, but Ko had flopped a flush as the board ran out 10♦6♦ to earn him another bounty.
"Did he say GG?" a tablemate asked.
"He said it very quietly," Cory Skolnik replied. "How's your day going?" Skolnik asked Ko.
"It's been okay," Ko said.
