Gerry Kane raised to 18,000 from under the gun, and Robert Vecchio called from the button. J.C. Tran then raised it up to 68,000 from the small blind. Kane got out of the way, and Vecchio pushed all in to 124,000. Tran called.

Tran showed {7-Clubs}

{7-Clubs}

{7-Spades}

, while Vecchio tabled {J-Spades}

{J-Spades}

{J-Hearts}

. The flop brought Tran his needed seven -- {5-Clubs}

{5-Clubs}

{3-Diamonds}

{7-Diamonds}

. The turn was the {8-Clubs}

{8-Clubs}

and the river the {6-Clubs}

{6-Clubs}

, and Vecchio hit the rail.

After the hand, Tran suggested that if Vecchio hadn't just smooth-called Kane's raise, he wouldn't have busted on the hand. In any event, Tran now has 340,000.
