On the 15th hand of hand-for-hand action, Hanh Tran raised in the hijack and Brian Tate called in the big blind. Tate drew three and Tran one, and Tate then bet all in. Tran called.
Tate drew three and two, while Tran took one on each of the last draws. Tran turned over 10x7x6x4x2x. "I double paired eights," Tate said as he flung 8x8x into the muck and headed to the rail on the money bubble.
The remaining 27 players are in the money.
