Kenny Tran brought some additional ammunition to his match against Chae An, perhaps hoping to gain a psychological edge over his young opponent.
Tran is currently playing with a noticeable stack of $5,000 Bellagio chips on the table, with each representing the potential payout for players defeated here in Round 1. As Tran causally riffles through enough money to buy a brand new car, An is simply trying to hold onto his WSOP-issued tournament chips.
In the most recent elimination, Daniel Steinberg was unable to best Keven Stammen.
During the final hand, Stammen's was able to hold against Steinberg's to clinch the victory.
