Event 1: 5th Place - Kim

$500 + $60 Deep Stack NLH (Re-Entry)         

 Jong Man Kim (Silver Spring, MD)
$27,769

A couple of amazing hands took place, resulting in chopped pots:

Joe Daddario got all-in against Brian Lemke -- BOTH players had pocket Aces!

A subsequent hand put a straight on the board and resulted in another chop.

Then Jong Man Kim was all-in holding KQ offsuit.  Unfortunately he ran into Philip Sam's pocket Aces.

The flop came K 8 5, giving Kim a glimmer of hope, but then an Ace on the turn gave Philip the set and a hammer-lock on the hand.  The King on the river was just salt in Kim's wound.

Philip chipped up to ~5 million.

Jong Man Kim will pick up $27,769 for 5th place.
