Huge Hand for Tran; Hinojosa Exits
Level 17
: 8,000/16,000, 16,000 ante
On a three-way flop of 7?9?2?, Lam Tran led for 100,000 and Carson Wielnad called behind, but then Caesar Hinojosa raised to 450,000.
After some pause, Tran moved all in for 735,000 total and Wieland quickly got out of the way. Hinojosa shook his head and made the call, covering Tran by only a few chips.
Lam Tran: 9?9?
Caesar Hinojosa: A?A?
Hinojosa needed to spike an ace to catch up with Tran's top set of nines, but the runout of 8?5? failed to do so and Tran was awarded the massive pot.
Left with only 4,000, Hinojosa exited the very next hand when he was was forced all in from the big blind and failed to survive.
