After Sean "PetyrBaelish" Hegarty busted on the bubble in 144th place, the in-the-money finishers included Nipun “javanti” Java (103rd - $961.30), Brian “JackBogle” Altman (86th - $1,121.52), Matt “RubberFist” Stout (80th - $1,228.33), Jared “DarrensRabbi” Jaffee (56th - $1,495.36), Ryan “bitc0in” Riess (33rd - $2,403.27), and Layne “scoop87” Flack (13th - $4,486.10).
Poker commentator and PokerNews Podcast co-host Jeff “mavsusc” Platt began the final table with the chip lead, but it proved to be a contentious affair with multiple players pulling out in front. “thehofffx” was the first to fall after losing a flip with Big Slick to the pocket jacks of “smallmytable,” and then “fan_sawyer21” followed after suffering a bad beat with ace-ten against Eric “CircleBall” Baldwin’s ten-nine when a nine spiked on the turn.
At that point the stacks had evened out a bit and Platt saw his run, which he was streaming in Twitch, come to an end in a blind-versus-blind hand against Kim, who shoved the small blind with queen-jack. Platt called off getting it in good with king-deuce suited, but he wasn’t rewarded for it as a queen spiked on the flop.
Kim then eliminated “smallmytable” in sixth place when his ace-nine held against king-jack, and then Ian “APokerJoker2” Steinman took his leave failing to get there with ace-jack against the pocket kings of “bunsamillion.”
With four players remaining, two-time WSOP bracelet winner Baldwin’s Big Slick held against Jason “Gunner_Q10” Gunn’s ten-jack suited to dispatch the latter, but Baldwin soon followed him out the door after running sevens into Kim’s aces in a big pot.
Kim began heads-up play with a nearly 5:1 chip lead over “bunsamillion,” and it didn’t take long for him to close the deal when his king-nine flopped top pair against queen-seven all in preflop.
