After some preflop action, three players saw a flop of {5-Spades}

{5-Spades}

{9-Clubs}

{9-Spades}

. J.C. Tran led out with his last 37,000 from the small blind, and John Juanda called from the button.

Tran: {J-Spades}

{J-Spades}

{9-Hearts}

{10-Clubs}

{8-Hearts}

Juanda:

{A-Clubs}

{9-Diamonds}

{3-Clubs}

{A-Spades}

Both had flopped trip nines, but Tran was going to need to improve to best Juanda's ace kicker. The turn was the {A-Diamonds}

{A-Diamonds}

, and that was it for Tran.

Juanda is up to 250,000.
