Massive Pot Propels Stearley Into the Lead

Level 13 : 800/1,600, 200 ante

Cuong Tran opened the action with a raise to 2,500 and Jacob Stearley three-bet to 5,200. Another player behind called the raise and so did Tran. On the {9-Spades}{5-Clubs}{3-Spades} flop, only Tran called the continuation bet of Stearley, then the {7-Clubs} showed up on the turn. Stearly moved all in and Tran had to decide whether or not to call for his last 58,000.

There was reason enough to think about the decision for Tran. He eventually made the call with {J-Clubs}{9-Clubs} for top pair and a flush draw. Stearly had {Q-}{Q-}, and the better pair held up after a {7-} river.
