Kimber Doubles Through Tran

J.C. Tran limped into the pot from the cutoff and Jeff Kimber check his option before we saw a flop of {9-Spades}{6-Spades}{K-Clubs}.

Tran led out for 85,000 and Kimber check-raised to 300,000. When Tran shoved, Kimber called.

Tran: {8-Clubs}{9-Hearts}{10-Spades}{K-Hearts}
Kimber: {Q-Diamonds}{K-Spades}{5-Spades}{A-Spades}

Tran had a gut-shot draw while Kimber had the nut flush draw. The {A-Clubs} on the turn put Kimber ahead, and he hit the flush with the {4-Spades} on the river to double up.

Tran Takes Some More

J.C. Tran limped from under-the-gun and action folded to Ross Boatman who checked his option on the big blind.

Both players checked the flop of {9-Clubs}{A-Spades}{4-Clubs} and Tran led for 40,000 after Boatman checked the {8-Hearts} on the turn. Boatman went into the tank before finally conceding the hand.
