Theo Tran

Theo Tran is fast approaching 100,000 in chips, seemingly in complete control of the action at his table. He recently took another 7,600 from Andrew Scott in the following hand:

One limper entered the pot before the action folded around to Tran in the cutoff, who limped as well. Scott completed from the small blind and the big blind checked.

The flop came down {5-Diamonds}

{5-Diamonds}

{3-Hearts}

{Q-Diamonds}

and Scott opened with a 2,000 bet. Both the big blind and unknown limper folded, but Tran made the call.

The {3-Spades}

{3-Spades}

fell on fourth street and Scott fired again, this time making it 5,000 to play. Tran called once more, sending the action to the river: {J-Clubs}

{J-Clubs}

.

Two quick checks prompted an early showdown and Scott tabled {10-?}

{10-?}

{5-?}

for two pair. Tran then tabled {Q-Hearts}

{Q-Hearts}

{10-Hearts}

for a bigger two pair to earn the pot. He currently sits with right around 93,000 in chips.
