Tran Can Find a Club

Thai Tran
Thai Tran
With a raise in front of him, Thai Tran moved all in for a total of 1,080,000. Clayton Newman quickly made the call with his big stack, putting Tran at risk.

Showdown
Tran: {A-Clubs} {Q-Clubs}
Newman: {A-Diamonds} {K-Spades}

Tran stood up from his chair, packed his belongings into his backpack and slipped it over his shoulder as he pushed his chair in with his foot. The flop was dramatic as it came {2-Clubs} {10-Clubs} {4-Spades}, drawing a big, "Oooooooh," from the rail. Tran had picked up the flush draw for nine additional outs, leaving him lingering around the table, still with backpack on. The turn was the wrong color, a blank {9-Diamonds}, but the river {8-Clubs} was money. Five clubs equals a flush, and Tran notches a double up back over 2,000,000.
