Lucky Turn Gives Kim Knockout of Yang

Level 14 : 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante

Shortly after taking the pot off Ken Huynh, Bong "Toby" Yang found himself all-in for about 140,000 against Daniel Kim.

According to tablemate Jesse Fullen, Kim and Yang both went all in pre-flop, with Yang showing {a-Diamonds}{k-Diamonds} and Kim {k-Clubs}{k-Spades}. Yang was behind before pairing his ace on a flop of {a-Clubs}{q-Clubs}{j-Clubs} but that also gave Kim a flush draw.

The turn came the {9-Clubs}, completing the nut flush for Kim and leaving Yang drawing dead and headed to the exit.

Kim moved up to 275,000 following the knockout.
