"It's elusive. With all these great players, it's possible I could have been coming to Triton for another seven years and not winning one," said Kim in his post-game interview on the Triton Poker live stream after closing out the victory.
In addition to the title and the money, Kim also earned 1,092 Card Player Player of the Year points for the win. This was his first title and sixth final-table finish of the year.
The tournament attracted many of the biggest names in the tournament poker game, with only the top 27 making the money. Among those that ran deep were bracelet winner Isaac Haxton, two-time bracelet winner Artur Martirosian, and 2019 main event champion Hossein Esnan.
This was the third-largest score yet for Kim, who hails from Southern California but is now based out of Australia. Kim now has more than $10.5 million in career earnings, with more than $6.2 million of that coming from his success in Triton events.
