Tran Takes the Change
Level 12
: Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante
Ismail Refikoglu had a brutal battle in the blinds that saw their stack go down to just 6,500.
Ismail Refikoglu: 6♥6♦
Big Blind: A♣J♣
Refikoglu was ahead on the Q♥K♦5♥ flop, althought the big blind had picked up a straight draw. There was no change on the 8♦ turn but the A♠ river saw Refikoglu pass across the majority of his stack.
A few hand later, Chris Tran open-jammed for around 25,000 and Refikoglu moved in his last few big blinds.
Ismail Refikoglu: A♦J♥
Chris Tran: K♥9♥
It was the end of the road for Refikoglu after seeing a king come on the J♣7♣3♦4♥K♦ river, sending him to the rail.
Tran collected the change and sat back with around half a starting stack.
