Jong Kim Eliminated in 18th Place ($24,697)

Level 28
: Blinds 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante

Jong Kim raised the hijack to 225,000 and Noel Rodriguez called from the big blind.
Rodriguez led out for 175,000 on the 7?6?9? flop, and Kim called.
On the A? turn, Rodriguez checked, Kim bet 375,000, Rodriguez then check-raised to 1,150,000, and Kim called.
The 10? fell on the river and Rodriguez shoved all in. Kim had around 2,300,000 chips behind and after some thought, he made the call.
Rodriguez showed 8?6? for a straight, and Kim flipped over A?K? for a pair of aces which meant he was eliminated.
