Kim Sends McKeehen Out
Level 10
: Blinds 800/1,600, 1,600 ante
Alex Kim opened the action from the button with a raise to 4,000. Joe McKeehen three-bet to 16,000 from the small blind before Kim four-bet to 38,000. McKeehen moved all in for around 120,000 chips and Kim made the call, covering him.
Joe McKeehen: J♠J♣ 
Alex Kim: K♥K♦
Two big hands colliding in late position, the 2015 WSOP Main Event Champion could not improve on the runout, and he was eliminated. Kim approached nearly the 400,000-chip mark after the hand, more than double the amount of anyone else at the table.
