Nines Fail Kim

We're not sure how the action went down, but we do know that Shinwon Kim was all in preflop for his last 190,000 and squaring off against Jonathan Godfrey.

Showdown
Godfrey: {K-Clubs}{J-Hearts}
Kim: {9-Spades}{9-Hearts}

Start your engines, because it's off to the races! Kim was ahead and needed to stave off paint cards, but the exact opposite happened as the flop fell {K-Spades}{Q-Spades}{Q-Clubs}. The {5-Diamonds} turn left Kim looking for a nine on the river, but it didn't happen as another paint card, the {J-Diamonds}, appeared on the river.

Kim exited the Amazone Room while Godfrey increased his stack to 975,000.
