: Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante
Namhyung Kim opened to 75,000 in the hijack, Hokyiu Lee potted to 255,000 in the small blind, and Kim called.
The flop was 9?6?7? and Lee moved all in for 290,000. Kim confirmed the amount before calling with a covering stack.
Hokyiu Lee: A?A?K?10?
Namhyung Kim: K?Q?10?6?
Lee showed down aces, while Kim had a pair and straight draw. The A? fell on the turn and Lee improved to top set, but Kim also picked up a flush draw.
The K? river was safe for Lee and he doubled up.
