Michael Tran's Time Is Up

Michael Tran's PokerNews Cup is done
Michael Tran's PokerNews Cup is done
Michael Tran has become the latest player eliminated after running {A-?}{k-?} into an opponent's {K-?}{k-?}.

Preflop, the opponent opened from under the gun to 625 and Tran flat called. They took a {7-?}{8-?}{3-?} flop and the opponent fired off 1,150. Tran called again.

A {k-?} hit the turn and the opponent checked. Tran took the opportunity to fire out 2,000 only for the opponent to move back over the top all in covering Tran.

Tran went into the tank considering his options before making the call. He would be drawing dead to the river, and so packed up his stuff and hit the road.
