Kim Runs Into a Bigger Flush
Level 7
: Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante
Gab Yong Kim and Adrian Mateos were heads up in a pot of 150,000 chips. Kim checked to Mateos from middle position on the board of 2♦A♥5♦J♦ and the latter put forth a bet of 60,000 from the hijack. Kim made the call and the river fell the 7♥.
Kim checked once again and faced a 185,000 bet once Mateos' turn had ended. Kim made a quick call and Mateos revealed Q♦10♦ for the queen-high flush.
Kim tabled 9♦7♦ for a lesser flush, meaning that the pot was sent Mateos' way.
