Trung Tran opened the pot with a 5,000 chip bet which was met with a quick call from the player on the button. The small blind looked down at his cards and announced all in, committing his last 7,000 into the middle. Tran wanted to raise, but knew he couldn’t. He made the call as did the other player in the hand.
