Tran’s Kings > Kim’s Queens


Some mad preflop action in a table which features Andrew Gaw, Linh Tran and SJ Kim among others.

First, Tran opened to 600 but saw another player re-pop it to 1,400. Gaw called but Kim three-bet to 3,600. Apparently, this is what Tran wanted as he shoved his remaining stack worth around 11,500.

The original re-raiser got out of the way and so did Gaw. Kim put a single chip however signifying a call.

Tran: K K
Kim: Q Q

Tran was way ahead and it would remain that way after a board of A 3 5 5 9. Tran climbs to over 26,000. Kim drops to a similar number with around 28,000 in chips.
