Nível 36 : Blinds 400,000/800,000, 800,000 ante

In a hand that saw Hyunsup Kim put in the rest of his few remaining chips, Maria Ho made the call top put Kim at risk in an attempt to get the table down to eight.

Maria Ho: K♥5♦

Much to the disappointment of Kim, the flop came 5♥4♠5♠, flopping him dead to running tens for the win or running kings for a chop, but when the turn brought the 7♦, Kim was drawing dead headed to the meaningless 9♣ river as Ho extends her chip lead and sends Kim to the exit in ninth place for $51,000.
