An Van Triple

We caught up to see An Van Tran all in and at risk against two opponents. Tran's all in was called by Erik Wigg and Jean Malherbe. The flop came down {A-Hearts}{3-Clubs}{K-Clubs} and Malherbe fired out a bet. Wigg got out of the way and the hands were tabled.

Tran: {Q-Clubs}{J-Clubs}
Malherbe: {9-Diamonds}{9-Spades}

Tran was drawing huge, looking for any pair, club, or ten for the straight. The {7-Diamonds} on fourth street did not do it for him, but the {4-Clubs} on fifth did. Tran was able to drag in a triple and is now sitting on about 200,000 in chips.
