Tran No Longer Hanging Tough

JC Tran was back down to 8,100 to begin the hand, and he open-shoved first in from the cutoff seat. In the small blind, Ron McMillen three-bet to 20,000, and that isolated him against Tran with a chance at the knockout. Cards up, gents:

Showdown
Tran: {J-Clubs} {5-Clubs}
McMillen: {A-Spades} {K-Spades}

The {Q-Spades} {3-Clubs} {10-Hearts} flop was a miss for Tran, and the {J-Diamonds} turn left hin drawing stone dead. His pair of jacks could not catch up to Broadway, and the meaningless {Q-Clubs} river is the last card of Tran's day.

With the knockout, McMillen has rebounded his stack back close to the century mark once again.
