JC is Running Like a Steam Tran

JC Tran is running full steam ahead after adding a further two notches to his poker bedpost in a double elimination. All in preflop, JC's {A-Spades}{9-Spades} was enough to fend off an {A-Diamonds}{5-Hearts} and {K-Diamonds}{J-Diamonds} holding, on a {7-Hearts}{8-Diamonds}{3-Clubs}{6-Diamonds}{A-Hearts} board.

However, both victims were short-stacked at the time, so JC's stack jumps up to a just-above-average 16,600.
