Kim Catches Lightning on the River to Eliminate Huang

Level 30
: Blinds 100,000/200,000, 200,000 ante

Xuejun Huang shoved for his last 2,600,000 on the button and was called by Brian Kim in the big blind to put Huang at risk.
Xuejun Huang: J♥J♣
Brian Kim: 3♣3♦
Huang was in great shape to double up and stayed that way on 5♦7♦Q♠ flop and 5♠ turn. However, the dealer brought the 3♥ on the river to improve Kim to a full house, which got a yelp from Huang as his Main Event ended in heartbreaking fashion.
