Philip Hilm raised to 120,000 from the button. Hyon Kim, playing from the small blind, raised to 1,100,000 (Hyon was not all in, as he had left a 5,000 chip on his cards to protect them.) Hilm made the call and they took a flop heads up...

{8-Diamonds}{5-Hearts}{3-Diamonds}

Kim, in a mere formality, tossed his last 5,000 chip into the pot. Needless to say, Hilm called. Kim showed {A-Spades}{Q-Diamonds} which trailed the {9-Clubs}{9-Diamonds} of Hilm. The turn came the {5-Diamonds} and the river the {8-Clubs}. Kim failed to catch one of his overcards and was eliminated in 57th place, earning himself $154,194 in the process.
