Hand #91 - Kenny Tran

Kenny Tran has the button. He raises to 110,000. Alec Torelli makes the call.

The flop comes out {5-Hearts} {2-Hearts} {9-Diamonds}. Torelli checks, prompting a bet of 150,000 from Tran. Torelli calls again to see the {10-Diamonds} fall on the turn. Both players check through to the river, which comes {3-Spades}. Now Alec leads out for 300,000. After about thirty seconds, Tran moves all in.

Torelli is stunned and lets out an exasperated sigh. He clearly was not expecting that move from Tran. He's talking to himself now, trying to talk his way through the hand and come to a decision as to whether he should call or fold. He counts down his stack to see where he would be if he folds (about 1.3 million). He takes his sunglasses off, he rubs his eyes with the back of his hand, and says "That's a good bet. I like your chances." After two minutes in the tank, he lays down his hand.
