Day 2
Dohwan Kim Adds A Tower To The Stack

Dohwan Kim min-raised to 5,000 from the hi-jack and got small blind Joey Weissman and big blind Ryan Anthony Pignatelli to join along. The three players were peeled a flop of 6♠ 4♠ Q♦. Weissman led out with 5,000 and was called by Pignatelli. Kim, however, played with his chips and three-bet 17,000 to the pot. Weissman made the call while Pignatelli stepped aside. Both players checked their action on the 2♥ turn and saw a T♥ river. Weissman fired 14,000 and Kim made the quick call. At the show-card moment, Weissman turned over K♠ 7♠ for a busted flush draw and a king high. Kim showed A♦ Q♥ for a top pair of queens.
