Vietnam National Cup (9,000,000 VND)

Krisada Pinthakasetrin opened from the cut-off and both blinds wanted to see a flop. This came down K♠ T♣ 7♥ . Both blinds checked and the Thai national Pinthakasetrin put out a bet of 100,000. In the small-blind position Chong-Hwa Kim pushed all-in, only having 205,000 rermaining post-flop. Shohei Osugi in the big-blind made the call and same went for the open raiser.

On the turn came the 8♣ and Osugi led out for 400,000 which was enough to make the Thai player fold. So it was heads-up with Kim's tournament life at risk.

Chong-Hwa Kim: J♦ J♠

Shohei Osugi: 7♠ 7♥

Kim only had two outs which he did not manage to hit and he busted in 17th place.

Nguyen Nhuong raised from the small blind, and Chong-Hwa Kim shoved all in from the big blind. Nhuong dropped in a call.

Nguyen Nhuong: J♠ Q♥

Chong-Hwa Kim: K♥ T♥

The clean board ran out 4♥ 5♠ 2♦ A♠ 5♣ , leaving Kim to stay alive in the tournament.
