Intransigence

Hanh Tran, a big stack since flopping a set of tens to knock out another player in the first level, has taken a couple of hits.

First we saw him call a hefty bet on the river of a {6-Diamonds}

board. "Flush?" he hazarded as he called, and duly his opponent flipped {Q-Diamonds}

. Tran mucked, and dipped to 85,000.

A few hands later and Tran raised to 800 in early position, only for Daniel van Kalkeren on the button to make it 2,100 to go. In the big blind, Rasmus Vogt turned to van Kalkeren and asked him how much he had left. The answer was 30,000, and Vogt opted to flat-call. Tran called too, and they saw a flop.

All three players checked the {5-Spades}
