With just 3,000 in starting chips, some players have decided against sitting patiently and waiting for hands, including JC Tran who just pushed over the top of Kenna James' 250 preflop raise for a total of 3,300 before proudly revealing pocket ducks.

"Don't do that again," threatened the ever-chatty, but highly entertaining James. "I will race you."

"It's difficult to make a pair in this game," added Tran, echoing word for word a line that James had thrown at the table earlier in the day.
