Kim Gets Paid by McKuin
Level 13
: Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante
On a heads-up flop of 4♥9♣9♥, there was already 75,000 in the pot when Lowell Kim bet 26,000 after a check from his opponent, Steven McKuin.
McKuin thought about it for a second then decided to make the call and the two went to the turn A♦ where he checked again.
Kim continued for 66,000 and McKuin was back in his thoughts for a good 30 seconds before he threw out chips to see the river 6♦
McKuin checked once more and KIm fired the third barrel for 147,000 and McKuin delved deep into the depths of his mind.
After several minutes of this, McKuin made the call and was then shown A♠K♥ by Kim for top two-pair. McKuin shook his head and mucked his hand as the massive pot of over 500,000 was pushed to Kim.
