Tu Kham Tran opened the action with a raise to 6K, and after that point the stress grew steadily in the hand, eventually coming to a point. The player to his immediate left, Fan Jia, instantly shoved, and then Jan Alovera, the player to Fan’s left, re-shoved over the top. So far so good – action was back to Tu Kham… who went in the tank. He thought, then he asked for the count of one stack, then for the count of the other stack… and finally Fan called time – but arguably, too quickly after the second stack countdown… but before the time count got going, Tu Kham had called, his stack covering both of his opponents. All the cards were exposed.
Tu Kham:
Fan:
Jan: 1d
The flop came – everyone was standing now – and then the turn came: . Eruption! The dealer quietly laid out the on the river to give Tu Kham the boat. Fan was visibly upset with the outcome of the hand and with Tu Kham, but everything calmed down soon enough and a single player was left stacking all the chips – including two additional $100 bounties.
