Tran led out one more time, sliding out a bet of 1,400,000 which was snap-called by Nass. Tran showed A?K? for two pair, while Nass took down a massive pot with 9?6? for trip nines.

A Sticky Nass

Level 32 : Blinds 80,000/160,000, 160,000 ante

Traian Standu raised to 320,000 from the button and Maurice Nass defended his big blind after Duc Tuan Tran had folded his small blind.

Nass then checked on the 10?5?3? flop and called the subsequent 285,000 continuation-bet from Nass. The Q? turn saw the same sequence happen, but this time the bet size was a hefty 775,000.

Both players then both checked the 5? river and Nass tabled his A?3? for bottom pair. It was good enough to rake in the pot as Stanciu quickly tossed his cards toward the muck.

Duc Tuan Tran raised from the small blind to 355,000 and was called by Maurice Nass in the big blind.

Tran led out for 240,000, only to be raised by Nass to 700,000. Tran took some time before sliding out a three-bet to 1,440,000 and it did not take long for Nass to announce a four-bet all in.

Tran folded instantly, with Nass showing K?6? as he took down a sizeable pot.

Another Double for Stanciu Against Nass

Level 31 : Blinds 60,000/120,000, 120,000 ante
Traian Stanciu
Traian Stanciu

Maurice Nass raised to 250,000 on the button and Traian Stanciu pushed all-in for 1,550,000 in the small blind. The initial raiser asked for a count and then called.

Traian Stanciu: K?J?
Maurice Nass: Q?J?

Stanciu was ahead once more and that remained to be the case throughout the 9?5?4?7?9? board as he doubled and nearly closed the gap to Nass.

"If it would have been a bounty, I call," Duc Tuan Tran joked, and said he would have won the hand.

Stanciu Snatches a Double-Up

Level 31 : Blinds 60,000/120,000, 120,000 ante

Traian Stanciu open-jammed from the button for 705,000 and Maurice Nass made the call from the big blind after getting a count.

Traian Stanciu: K?J?
Maurice Nass: K?5?

Stanciu had the dominating king, but the A?A?3? brought some chop outs for Nass. However, the remainder of the runout remained clean for Stanciu when 6?Q? was put on the felt and he doubled up to stay in contention.
