One Up, One Down

Level 8 : Blinds 15,000/25,000, 25,000 ante

As Michael Moncek was entering the fold for the second time today, Brian Kim was putting all of his chips in the middle hoping to stay alive. After a couple of preflop raises between Kim and Dustin Bailey, all of the chips were in the middle with Kim being at risk for around 900,000.

Brian Kim: Q?Q?
Dustin Bailey: A?K?

It was a classic coin flip and the jack-high board was looking clean for Kim up until the river. The dealer burned and turned the K? on the river and Bailey spiked a pair of kings to send Kim to the rail in the last level of the night.
