Mo open-shoved from the button, and once again Tran was forced to fold without seeing a flop.

Hand #33

Tran folded his button and Mo received a walk in the big blind.

Hand #34

Mo open-shoved for about 500,000 effective, and with just 10 big blinds with which to muster a comeback, Tran made the call while tabling .
