What Am I Doing?

Before the flop Jon Turner raised to 21,000 and Albert Kim called on the button. The flop came {8-Spades}

and Turner led out for 41,000. Kim then raised to 140,000 and Turner moved all in, leaving Kim to decided if he wanted to call for another 336,000.

After tanking for a good bit he indeed decided to call, and found that his {8-Hearts}

was up against Turner's {A-Clubs}

and top set. The turn quickly reversed the situation as the {Q-Hearts}

fell, giving Kim the flush. Turner needed to board to pair to give him the full house, but instead the {4-Hearts}

fell on the river, and just that fast Turner was eliminated from the Main Event.

"What am I doing?" Kim wondered aloud after the hand. "I'm so stupid, I'm such a donk. That's the dumbest thing I've ever done."

Jeremiah Smith said, "I agree with you, that's a terrible call. Jon Turner almost always has a set there."

Self-flagellation aside, Kim is still very much alive in the tournament and has around 1.4 million in chips.
