Tran Trying to Get Some Back

Level 3 : 150/300, 0 ante

Although we aren't sure how he lost most of his chips, we caught Theo Tran all in for around 1,500 holding {3-Hearts}{3-Diamonds} against another player's {8-Spades}{8-Diamonds} on a board reading {9-Diamonds}{4-Spades}{3-Spades}{7-Clubs}{x-}. Tran's set of threes helped him double up to 3,050.

On the next hand the hijack raised to 675 and Tran moved all in again on the button. The small blind called while the original raiser folded.

Tran: {8-Spades}{8-Hearts}
Small Blind: {7-Diamonds}{7-Clubs}

The board ran out {a-Diamonds}{j-Diamonds}{6-Clubs}{2-Clubs}{k-Spades} and Tran doubled for a second time to get back up to 6,400.
