[user198205]

Level 6 : 150/300, 25 ante

J.C. Tran raised from late position to 725 and was called by the player in the big blind. The flop came {8-Clubs} {7-Hearts} {5-Clubs} , the big blind checked, and Tran bet 1,025. The big blind then raised all in for a total of 8,725 (which had Tran covered) and Tran called.

Tran: {9-Diamonds} {7-Diamonds}
Big Blind: {6-Spades} {5-Diamonds}

Each player had a pair and a straight draw with Tran's pair of nines in the lead. The turn and river were the {a-Spades} and {q-Clubs} which changed nothing and Tran doubled his stack to 16,800.
