Runaway Tran
Level 15
: 1,200/2,400, 400 ante
Nghi Tran is up to 530,000 chips and is bulldozing his opponents at his table.
We caught up with a hand where Tran had led from the big blind for 12,000 on a 
flop and Liv Boeree called. The turn brought the 
into play and Tran instantly bet 61,000, sending Boeree into the tank. Eventually, Boeree folded and Tran scooped the pot.
The very next hand, the action folded to Tran in the small blind and he moved all in on his opponent, who folded. Tran showed 
.
A few hands later and Tran was all-in again! This time Rahul Byrraju bet big on the turn of a 
board, a bet of around 70,000 but then folded when Tran put him all in.
"I'd pay $50 to see that hand," remarked one of Tran's opponents. Tran declined to show his holding.
