Fishman Doubles Through Van Tran

Ken Fishman must be glad that he returned from the break on time, because he has doubled up in the very first hand.

Nghi Van Tran raised to 100,000 in early position and Ken Fishman three-bet to 275,000 from the cutoff. The lively Van Tran moved all-in and Fishmann made the call and we had a flip.

Fishman{A-Hearts} {K-Diamonds}
Van Tran{J-Diamonds} {J-Spades}

Fishman needed some help and it arrived on the flop.

Board: {A-Clubs} {2-Diamonds} {9-Diamonds} {8-Spades} {4-Clubs}

The Fishman stack was counted and verified as 735,000 and that's exactly how much was taken out of the Van Tran stack.
