Fourth Time's the Charm for Tran
Level 33
: Blinds 200,000/400,000, 400,000 ante
After three all-in attempts since joining the table, Theo Tran moved in for a fourth time, this time from the button holding K♦10♠. Michael Mizrachi, in the big blind, called him with Q♣Q♦, putting Tran at risk.
The flop came 10♦3♦A♦, giving Tran a pair and some backdoor possibilities. The K♥ on the turn improved him to two pair, but with the board still not safe, Tran stayed cautious.
When the K♣ hit the river, there was no more doubt. Tran locked up the double with a full house and finally secured a much-needed boost to his stack.
