Kelly Kim Loses a Customer

Under the gun, Kelly Kim raised to 180,000 and Tim Loecke called from the cutoff and Nicholas Sliwinski and Nikolay Losev from the blinds. The flop came {2-Clubs} {5-Spades} {Q-Diamonds} and, after Sliwinksi and Losev checked, Kim bet 400,000. That was enough to chase out Loecke and Sliwinski, but Losev made the call. The turn brought the {6-Diamonds}; Losev checked and when Kim bet one million, Losev immediately folded. And a good fold it was -- Kim flashed {Q-Spades} {Q-Hearts} for top set. He's now up to 8.88 million while Losev was left with just 1.8 million.
