Kenny Tran is in business.

Kenny Tran has been hanging around 20,000 for most of the afternoon. He finally cracked the 30,000-mark in a recent hand against Tom Guise. Tran moved all in for about 10,000 after the flop came down {A-Clubs}

{A-Clubs}

{2-Clubs}

{Q-Clubs}

. Guise, holding {K-Clubs}

{K-Clubs}

{K-Diamonds}

, must have figured he could rely on his club-and-set draw if Tran held an ace. It turned out that Tran did indeed hold an ace -- he had {A-Diamonds}

{A-Diamonds}

{Q-Hearts}

for top two pair. The turn {A-Spades}

{A-Spades}

took all of the drama out the hand by making a full house for Tran. The river {9-Hearts}

{9-Hearts}

completed the board.

Guise dropped to 31,000, while Tran is up to 32,000.
