Trans at Two Tables

Seated under the gun, John Phan puts up a raise to 3,600. J.C. Tran makes the call from late position. When it gets back around to the big blind, he raises all in for a total of 16,100. John Phan then re-pushes all his chips, 22,500 of them to be exact.

J.C. Tran pauses for several minutes, mutters, "Pocket pair," and tosses his cards into the muck. The hands are shown down, with Phan's {A-Diamonds}

way out in front of the at-risk player's {A-Clubs}

.

The board improves Phan further when it comes {J-Diamonds}

, making him the nut flush and sending another player out to the rail early.

From the adjacent table, Theo Tran gets involved in the post-hand action: "Hey J, what you got?" he asks.

"Kings..." replies J.C. Tran, with a smirk.

Theo sarcastically quips, "You're so good!"
