Coughlin Puts Tran to the Test
Level 2
: 100/100, 100 ante
David Coughlin raised to 400 from the hijack, and the cutoff made the call, as did Howard Mash in the small blind. Trung Tran three-bet to 2,500 from the big blind, and Coughlin, the cutoff, and Mash all called.
Mash checked the 
flop to Tran, who bet 2,000. Coughlin and the cutoff called, while Mash folded.
Tran bet 3,000 on the 
turn, and only Coughlin called.
The 
fell on the river, and Tran checked. Coughlin pushed his entire 14,000 stack into the middle, and Tran, who had 11,000 behind, spent half-a-minute in thought before releasing his hand.
