J.C. Tran - 3rd Place

J.C. Tran hung on as long as he could but in the end just couldn't put enough pots together to come out on top. After Inwook Choi opened for 50,000, Tran moved all in for 166,000 total. Adrien Allain called, as did Choi. They checked all the way down on a board of {A-Spades}

{A-Spades}

{J-Clubs}

{10-Spades}

{9-?}

{8-?}

. Tran showed down two pair, {A-?}

{A-?}

{8-?}

, but the dead man's hand left Tran dead against Allain's {A-?}

{A-?}

{Q-?}

, a queen-high straight.

Tran leaves the tournament in third place with $117,470.
