J.C. Tran opened from early position and Jess Yawitz moved all in for a bit over 100,000. Tran made the call and their hole cards revealed a classic race situation.

Yawitz {Q-Spades} {Q-Clubs}
Tran {A-Spades} {K-Spades}

An ace on the flop and a king on the turn gave the pot to Tran and Yawitz met his tournament end. After the hand, Tran's stack soared past 500,000.
