Tran Wins Skirmish
Level 7
: Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante
JC Tran was a late Day 1 arrival and found himself as a short stack in the field.
The two-time WSOP bracklet winner, however, found a spot to add chips when he raised 2,000 in early position. Action folded to the two players in the small and big blinds call, and they both called.
The dealer placed 10♣7♥K♥ on the board, and the players in the blinds checked. Tran then made a 2,500 bet, which saw the small blind call and the big blind fold.
The A♦ appeared on the turn, which saw the player in the small blind once again check. Tran used the opportunity to bet 5,000, which forced out his opponent.
