One of the biggest pots of the entire tournament just went down, with more 2.5 million chips being claimed by Hieu Tran.

Tran opened for 85,000 from middle position and Collin White three-bet to 185,000 from late position.

This move did not impress Tran though, and he coolly four-bet to 350,000 even. Both players started the hand with more than 1.2 million chips, and soon enough White's entire stack was shipped into the middle.

Tran snapped the bet off with his {K-Spades}{k-Clubs} and found himself in great shape against White's {9-}{9-}. After the final board rolled out {4-Clubs}{j-Hearts}{8-Hearts}{k-Hearts}{a-Diamonds}, Tran had secured the massive double through with his set of kings, while White sent the vast majority of his stack across the table.
