Kohl Takes One Out But Doesn't Get Ding's Chips
Level 20
: Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante
Three-handed on a board of 10♥8♠7♣4♣, Biao Ding bet 250,000 from the cutoff before James Kohl moved all in for 640,000 in the big blind. An early-position player called for his last 540,000 and Ding tanked for a few minutes before folding.
The all-in player showed K♣10♣ for top pair and a flush draw, while Kohl had 6♣5♣ for a straight. The river was the K♦ and Kohl took the pot to send his opponent to the rail.
"I wanted his chips. If you folded a set, that's a hell of a fold," Kohl told Ding after the hand.
