Vitaliy Kim Eliminated in 8th Place
Level 15
: 2,500/5,000, 5,000 ante
The first High Roller, here in 2019 APPT Jeju is on the bubble. Vitaliy Kim is the latest casualty of the event and this left seven players in the field.
Kim limped from middle position, and Jiang Chen was in the small blind raising to 30,000. Kim made the call and the flop came 
.
Chen grabbed a pile of his stack and put it in the middle, while Kim used one of his time banks before calling all in for the rest of his chips.
Jiang Chen: 
Vitaliy Kim: 
Kim needed a deuce, a club or running cards for a straight to stay alive but none of the above happened. The 
on the turn and the 
on the river gave the pot to Chen who slightly covered his opponent.
Seven players are playing for six paid spots now.
