Tran Toast

In a hand that would cripple J.C. Tran, Tran open-pushed all in for his last 2,975 and was called by the player in the hijack seat. Another player then pushed all in himself for his last 2,900 from the button and the original caller called him as well.

Tran: {10-Diamonds}{10-Clubs}
Hijack: {6-Clubs}{6-Spades}
Button: {A-Spades}{K-Hearts}

The board ran out {2-Hearts}{9-Spades}{9-Hearts}{2-Clubs}.....{A-Hearts}, pairing the player on the button on the river for the win. After he scooped the main pot and Tran scooped the side, he was left with just 150.

Tran was eliminated on the very next hand after his {8-}{2-} was bested by two other opponents.
