Quan Tran Eliminated in 5th Place ($56,557)

Kirk Brown

Level 39 : Blinds 600,000/1,200,000, 1,200,000 ante

Quan Tran opened to 4,200,000 preflop and was called by Brian Keith Etheridge to see a flop of A♥5♦J♥.

"I'm all in," announced Etheridge as he set out a stack, covering Tran.

"Man... such a bad flop," Tran sighed, but still made the call to put himself at risk.

Quan Tran: K♠K♣8♠2♥ All in
Brian Keith Etheridge: A♠Q♦6♦5♠

Etheridge was a big favorite with his flopped two pair, and the runout of 3♦3♥ changed nothing to eliminate Tran in fifth.
