Kim's Flopped Flush Takes a Chunk Off Affleck

Level 1 : 100/200, 200 ante

Matt Affleck reraised to 5,000 from the big blind and was called by an opponent in middle position and C.T. Kim in the small blind.

All three players checked the {2-Hearts}{6-Hearts}{k-Hearts} flop before Affleck fired out 5,500 on the {4-Hearts} turn. Only Kim called.

The river was the {3-Spades} and Kim checked over to Affleck for a third time. Affleck took his time before tapping the felt as Kim showed {10-Hearts}{9-Hearts} for the flopped flush.

Affleck, who has made a few memorable deep runs in the Main Event in the past, mucked his hand and has lost nearly a third of his stack here on the first level.
