Kim Bubbles; Zurita and Scrogins Survive
There were three all in and calls across three separate tables.
First, Jose Zurita was all in against Wooram Cho who held the covering stack in a preflop confrontation.
Jose Zurita: Q?Q?
Wooram Cho: A?2?
Zurita's queens remained ahead on the 2?J?K?8?6? runout to score a full double up through Cho.
The second all-in unfolded in a battle of two medium stacks between Namhyung Kim and Mario Mosboeck. A substantial pot of more than 400,000 emerged to the J?6?5?K? turn on which Kim was all-in for 171,000 and Mosboeck called.
Namhyung Kim: 8?8?
Mario Mosboeck: A?A?
The 7? river ensured at least one seat open and the Day 1b bubble had already burst.
Over on table 13, two players saw a board of A?J?5? with roughly 225,000 already in the middle and the scenario was almost identical. Benjamin Scrogins was all in for his last 30,000 against Rui Sousa who covered.
Benjamin Scrogins: 8?8?
Rui Sousa: 9?9?
Scrogins was in dire shape against the bigger pocket pair but the K? turn did give him a flush draw for some additional outs. The flush came through on the Q? river and he secured a full double up on the stone bubble.
