J.C. Tran

Tue Jun 16 2009

Winner of Event 30 - $2,500 Pot Limit Omaha

Add yet another impressive accolade to J.C. Tran's already stellar tournament resume; the man took down his second career WSOP bracelet this afternoon, besting a monstrously pro-heavy field of 436 PLO players to become the champion of Event 30. Tran will take home $235,685 in prize money for the win, which strengthened his case for being included in any conversation that poses the question: "Who are the best tournament poker players in the game today?" Congratulations, J.C., on a tournament well-played!

    RT @paulesmith1970: Only complaint I am aware of is @allenkessler who holds the view that nobody should bust out for the first three days
