JC Tran Eliminated

JC Tran had been shortstacked after leading out preflop, getting raised, reraising, and then ultimately folding when his opponent moved all in.

His elimination happened two hands later when he led out preflop for 8,500 and his opponent made it 24,500. Tran moved all in and was called. Tran held A-K while his opponent, Lasse Peterson, held A-Q. Lasse spiked a queen on the flop and Tran was unable to recover.
