Tran Becomes a Big Stack

Level 9 : 300/600, 75 ante

With at least 40,000 chips in the pot and a player all in already, J.C. Tran moved his remaining 27,000 into the middle after an {8-Clubs}{3-Hearts}{6-Hearts} flop. The third player folded and Tran's {Q-Clubs}{Q-Spades} were dominating the {J-Clubs}{J-Spades} of his previously all in opponent. Both the turn and river were an Ace and with that hand Tran moved over the 70,000 chip mark.

A few hands later and he has accumulated another 25,000 or so. His treasure chest of chips is now 96,000 strong!
