On a flop of {10-Diamonds}

{10-Diamonds}

{8-Hearts}

{7-Hearts}

, Joe Hachem moved all in from the small blind, covering the short-stack of his opponent JC Tran.

Tran was committed and made the call, with {9-Spades}

{9-Spades}

{8-Clubs}

for a pair and straight draw for the lead as Hachem flipped {Q-Hearts}

{Q-Hearts}

{9-Diamonds}

. However, the turn was the {J-Hearts}

{J-Hearts}

giving Tran a jack-high straight, but he was now trailing the queen-high straight of Hachem.

Needing a queen to chop the pot, the river was the {10-Spades}

{10-Spades}

and Tran was sent to the rail as Hachem collects another pot.
