Michael Tran is now in good health having just shipped in a double up through Victor Chong. Big stacked Chong has been stealing Tran’s blinds and this time, Tran bit back hard. The hand began with a limp by sb Chong and bb Tran checked.
At the flop 3♠ 7♠ A♦, Chong bet 40k and quick call by Tran. On the turn 6♠, Chong sent out 155k only to be raised by Tran to 310k while leaving himself the same behind. Chong shoved and Tran once again with the fast call.
Chong 4♠ 5♦ straight
Tran J♠ 5♠ flush
The river 8♦ was of no consequence and Tran doubled up to 1.37M while Chong dropped to 865k.
