Yang Peng entered the day running second in command and held on to it for a good part of the opening two rounds. In this level however, his stack downsized with some of it going to short stacked Soo Jo Kim.
On a turn board of 8♥ Q♣ 9♦ A♠, Kim moved all in with 11.7k, Peng raised to 35k, and the third player in the hand got out of the way.
Kim A♣ 8♣ two pair
Peng J♦ 10♦ straight
When the river spiked an A♦, Kim overtook with a full house while Peng was stunned in disbelief. The APT Main Event champion Kim doubled up to around 50k.
