Michael Tran Eliminated in 14th Place (A$19,600)
Level 23
: 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante
On a flop of 9♥4♣7♣, there were around 400,000 chips in the middle when Paawan Bansal and Noel Jaber checked, then Michael Tran bet 210,000. Bansal then raised to 415,000, which got Jaber to quickly folded. Tran, however, decided to shove for around 1,100,000, and Bansal snap-called.
Michael Tran: Q♠Q♥
Paawan Bansal: K♣Q♣
Tran was ahead with his queens but had a lot of outs to dodge as Bansal had a flush draw with an overcard. The 5♦ turn was safe for Tran and left him one card away from a double, but he couldn't fade the river as the K♥ gave Bansal a pair of kings, ending Tran's run.
