Hand #67: Chuck Kim Doubles Through Soheil Shamseddin

Jan 17, 2009

Hand #67  –  Tyler Smith has the button in seat 3. 

Chuck Kim raises under the gun to 170,000, Soheil Shamseddin reraises from the big blind to 500,000, and Kim immediately moves all in for 920,000. 

Shamseddin thinks for about three minutes before he calls with [9d2c]. Kim shows [8d8h], and he needs it to hold up to stay alive. 

The flop comes [10h3h3d], and Kim retains the lead. The turn card is the [Ad], and Shamseddin needs a nine to bust Kim here. 

The river card is the [6h], and Chuck Kim wins the pot with his pocket eights, doubling up to about 1.9 million.
