Tran Has No Fear With Aces

Jacob Wilson

Level 19 : Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante

Action was picked up on a flop of K♥9♥10♣ with a bloated heads-up pot underway, contested between Stanislav Halatenko and Thang Tran from middle and late position respectively. Stanislav Halatenko announced "pot" to put his opponent all in, and Tran thoight for a while before announcing "Let's go!" and calling.

Thang Tran: A♥A♦Q♠8♦4♣ All in
Stanislav Halatenko: A♣8♠7♣5♦3♦

Tran saw the best news possible, as his aces were still in the lead and only had to fade a six or running clubs. The brick 2♦4♠ runout secured him a massive double, as Halatenko's huge stack took a hit.
