Tran Trending Up

When we got to the table, JC Tran was heads up with another opponent on a board that read {9-Diamonds}{j-Hearts}{2-Diamonds}{6-Clubs}. Tran checked to his opponent, who fired out 3,250, which appeared to be about a pot sized bet. Tran made the call, and both players checked when the {8-Clubs} hit the river. Tran tabled {q-Clubs}{q-Diamonds}, and his opponent mucked, giving the pot over to Tran.

Tran has doubled his starting stack after that hand, as he now sits on 60,000.
