Tran Sent Packing

Jimmy Tran pushed all in for roughly 4,300 on a board reading {5-Diamonds}{9-Clubs}{8-Diamonds}{4-Hearts} and was called by his opponent.

Tran tabled his {9-Diamonds}{8-Hearts} for top two-pair, but it was his opponent's {7-Spades}{6-Spades} for a flopped straight enough to cripple Tran to just 275 when the {10-Clubs} landed on the river.

The following hand Tran was unable to scare the player in the big blind with his monster 125-chip raise as his {9-Hearts}{2-Hearts} went down to the {10-Diamonds}{3-Hearts} of the big blind as the board rolled out {8c]{J-Hearts}{K-Clubs}{10-Hearts}{4-Clubs}.
