Kim Applies Pressure
Level 16
: Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante
Wook Kim, who was on the button, powered up against an opponent on a board showing 6?J?4?7? and a pot containing a little more than 100,000.
After his opponent checked the turn, Kim fired 85,000, which his opponent called.
The river brought 6? to pair the board. The player in early position checked, and Kim slowly collected chips in front of him making a 135,000 bet.
Kim’s opponent went deep in the tank, using more than a minute to think it over. Then, he asked the dealer to spread the pot, which showed more than 250,000.
After returning to the tank for a few more seconds, Kim’s opponent folded.
