Theo Bounces Back

Theo Tran called a 2,600 raise preflop from Jared Hamby, as did a player in the big blind. The flop came {J-Hearts} {6-Spades} {4-Clubs} and Hamby led out for 3,800. Theo made the call but the big blind folded. The turn came the {5-Hearts}, Hamby checked and Theo fired 5,500 into the pot, then Hamby moved all-in for his remaining chips.

Theo made the call and showed pocket sixes for a flopped set while Hamby turned over 10-7 for an open-ended straight draw. The {9-Diamonds} failed to improve Hamby and he was eliminated while Theo moved up to 125,000.
