Tran Tripped Up

With the board showing {J-Spades} {5-Diamonds} {A-Spades} {2-Hearts} {2-Clubs} and a modest pot having already developed, a short-stacked player sitting in the big blind checked, J.C. Tran bet 250 from the button, and his opponent check-raised all in for 750 total. Tran thought a beat, then made the call.

His opponent showed {5-Spades} {5-Hearts} for a set. "Returning the favor," chimed another player, suggesting perhaps Tran was giving back some chips he'd taken from his tablemate earlier.

Tran is sitting on about 2,300 at present.
