Tran Wins Biggest Pot of Tournament

Kevin Taylor

The room is still recovering from a gigantic, ginormous, gargantuan pot here at the 1,200-2,400 blind level. The beneficiary of the pot was Lynda Tran, who is now up to 400,000 chips!

Action started with the player under the gun moving all in for 32,000. Arthur Hahn was next to act, and he quickly moved all in for over 225,000! Action folded to Tran, and she peaked down at her cards. She didn't fold them immediately, and it was very clear she had a big hand.

"You got aces?" Tran asked Hahn. "I can't tell you," he replied. Tran wanted to know how much Hahn had, and he replied "I got you covered honey. I got the whole room covered!" After about three minutes of tanking, Hahn said "I never called the clock on anyone ever," as if to hint for another player at the table to do so.

After about five minutes of tanking, Tran tossed in some chips, and said "Call!". The rest of the table folded, and the three players tabled their cards.

Tran made the right call with the kings, and she stayed out in front as the board ran down . Tran eliminated the all in player, and also collected the double up to run her stack all the way up to 405,000!
