A couple of hands passed with Albert Paik and Iori Yogo winning small pots then it was back to regular programming with Jinwoo Kim on attack. He won the next five hands to go over to come close to 6M in chips.
Let’s lay the hands down…
First one was an uncalled raise. Second, Paik raised to 100k and Kim called. The board completed 2♥ Q♥ 6♦ Q♦ A♣ and no bets came. Kim won with K-9. Next hand, was again an uncalled raise.
Fourth winning hand, button Kim raised to 125k and Paik called on the big blind. On the flop 4♣ A♥ 5♦, Paik checked and Kim continued with a 70k bet. Paik called. The 8♦ turn brought no bets but on the J♥ river, it was action once again with Paik leading out with a 150k bet, Kim raising to 550k, and Paik folding up.
Immediately after, he took it as well. Yogo raised to 125k and he called on the big blind. At the flop 6♣ Q♥ 8♦, Kim checked, Yogo bet 150k, Kim raised to 380k, Kim folded.
Chip counts at the end of this hand:
Yogo 1.48M
Paik 1.59M
Kim 6.1M
