The tides have turned since our last chip count update; J.C. Tran absorbed another big hit to his chip stack and has since dropped to just over 10,000 in chips. J.C. lost a majority of his chips on a coinflip, holding A-K against an opponent's pocket queens.
Meanwhile, just a couple tables away, Michael Banducci has chipped up to 75,000 and is beginning to take control of his table. He is currently the tournament's dominant chip leader.
