Photo: Jimmy Tran (left) watches as his pocket aces hold up to defeat the pocket kings of Bill Brown (top right).
Jimmy Tran raises to 19,000 from middle position and Bill Brown moves all-in for around 170,000 total. Action folds back around to Tran and he calls, having Brown covered.
Brown turns over [KdKc] and Tran calmly reveals his [AsAc]. Tran’s aces stay out front as the board runs out [10h5s2c2sJd] and the start of day chip leader Brown is eliminated in 19th place.
Jimmy Tran – 500,000 (63 BBs)
Bill Brown – eliminated in 19th place ($25,056)
The final 18 players have now redrawn for seats at the final two tables and are now on a fifteen-minute break. When they return, they will play the final 17 minutes of Level 19, then the entirety of Level 20 before calling it a night.
