Action was picked up with Mikyung Kim all-in for 262,000 and Evan Barnett, at risk, on small blind making the call.

Evan Barnett: A♣ Q♥

Minkyun Kim: A♦ K♥

The dealer flopped 2♣ 8♥ 7♦ and with Kim still ahead, Barnett lost hope and starting fixing his things. On the 4♣ turn he stood but immediately sat down when the Q♣ was dealt on the river. A player on the table jokingly asked if he was just stretching his legs.

Minkyun Kim shoved all-in for 45,000 after the turn on a board of 4♥ 2♥ 7♦ 9♦ There was maybe another 40,000 already in the pot. Seitaro Aso counted out thr 45,000 and looked how his stack would be without it, then he stared at the board, thinking of what Kim could possible have. Then, Aso tanked some more before finally pushing a chip to call.

Kim flipped over K♦ K♠ and Aso congratulated "nice hand" before revealing 7♣ 6♣ for a pair of sevens. The 8♣ on the river kept Kim ahead and awarded him a crucial double-up and some.
