Kim Eliminates Two Players In Two Hands

Level 4 : 300/600, 600 ante

Victor Kim from under-the-gun bet 1,200. The early position player raised to 4,000 which was cold-called by the button. Kim decided to move all-in and was called by early position, the button folded. The early position was the effective stack for 33,000.

Early Position: {a-Clubs}{q-Hearts}
Victor Kim: {a-Spades}{k-Spades}

There was no sweat for early position except for a chop with a gutshot wheel draw on a board of {2-Diamonds}{3-Hearts}{5-Hearts}{10-Diamonds}{2-Clubs}. Kim took a sizeable pot and eliminated early position.

The very next hand Kim in the big blind had his chips in the middle once again, this time with the button who was effective stack for 27,000.

Button: {9-Spades}{4-Spades}
Victor Kim: {a-Clubs}{k-Clubs}

The button admitted he wanted to double or rebuy before the start of the next break. The board of {j-Hearts}{q-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds}{10-Spades} improved Kim to a straight and the button headed to the rebuy line.
