Kim Fades for the Triple Up... Son

Level 12 : 600/1,200, 200 ante

From early-middle position, Brian Kim moved all in for his last 5,600. Action folded around to one of PokerNews' Rookie Roundup players Mickey Petersen in the small blind and he reraised all in for about 27,000. The big blind then called all in quickly after looking at his hand.

Kim: {4-Diamonds}{4-Clubs}
Petersen: {A-Spades}{K-Clubs}
Big Blind: {A-Clubs}{J-Spades}

The board ran out {9-Hearts}{7-Hearts}{5-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds}{Q-Clubs} and Kim was able to fade his opponents' hands and triple up to 17,700. Petersen won the side pot against the big blind and saw his stack move up a tiny bit to 38,000.
