After entering this Day 2 with a short stack, J.C. Tran has taken down another big pot to move into more comfortable chip position.

We saw Tran all in for his last 16,400, with the final board reading {8-Diamonds}{8-Spades}{3-Hearts}{5-Clubs}{j-Clubs}, and the {Q-Diamonds}{Q-Clubs} tabled. Jacob Bazeley held the {A-Spades}{K-Diamonds} and his hand was second best, giving Tran the double up in this classic coin flip confrontation.

Shortly after this win, Tran doubled through again, and this time it was him holding big slick. Tran's {A-Hearts}{K-Clubs} prevailed over an opponent's {4-Clubs}{4-Hearts} after the board ran out {7-Spades}{8-Spades}{a-Clubs}{8-Clubs}{2-Diamonds}, and the dangerous pro doubled his 38,200 in consecutive coin flip hands.
