Kim’s Aces Hold to Eliminate Schoss
Level 14
: 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante
Stefan Schoss opened the action with a raise to 8,000, but De Han Kim, sitting in the big blind, responded with a three-bet to 25,000. Schoss quickly called, setting the stage for an interesting hand.
The flop came 3♣Q♣8♥, and Kim continued the aggression with a bet of 15,500. Once again, Schoss called without hesitation.
When the 10♣ hit the turn, Kim checked, giving Schoss an opening to shove his remaining 75,000 chips. Kim took his time, carefully counting his stack before making the call.
Schoss revealed A♠J♠ for ace-high with a straight gutshot, while Kim showed A♦A♣ for an overpair of aces. The river brought the A♥, securing the hand for Kim and sending Schoss to the rail.
