Tran Takes From Thomas
Level 1
: Blinds 100/200, 200 ante
Henry Tran opened to 400 in middle position with Michael Doumani making the call on the button.
Steffan Thomas, who bagged 180,000 in yesterday's opening flight, announced a three-bet to 1,600 in the small blind. Both opponents called to see the 7?10?8? flop.
Thomas check-called a bet of 2,500 from Tran, while Doumani folded before the J? turn. Thomas checked again, calling after Tran fired 5,500.
The 4? river saw both players check. Thomas showed A?K? for ace-high, while Tran took the pot with 8?7? for a pair of eights.
