Tran Moving Up in the World

[user75032]

On a board of {J-Clubs}

{J-Clubs}

{3-Hearts}

{2-Clubs}

{10-Hearts}

, Pat White bet 10,000 into Kenny Tran. Tran called. Before the river was dealt, White bet 25,000 in the dark, enough to put Tran all in. The dealer peeled the {3-Spades}

{3-Spades}

off the deck. Tran deliberated for several minutes before calling for all of his chips. White showed an unimproved {A-Diamonds}

{A-Diamonds}

{K-Spades}

; Tran's

{K-Diamonds}

{10-Diamonds}

was good enough to take the pot.

Winning this pot bumped Tran's stack up to 84,000. As a post script to an earlier post, Tran did manage to get the Yankee game on a television near his table.
