David Jackson raised from the button to 650,000, Joseph Kim moved all in from the small blind for 1,500,000, and Jackson called with 3h3d. Kim turned over Qc10d, and needed to improve to stay alive.

The board came 10h7h7c4h4c, and Kim won the pot with a higher two pair, tens and sevens, to double up in chips.
