Chan Truong made the 1,200 min-raise from early position and was re-raised by Brett Bader to 3,500. Jin Woo Choi on the button called, and when action came back to Truong, he pushed all-in for his remaining 23,500. Bader surrendered. The short-stacked Choi tanked a while, but made the call.

Chan Truong: K♥ K♠

In the next hand, Truong raised to 1,200 with Brett Bader calling behind. Jin Woo Choi pushed his last 4,200 chips to the middle. Truong backed away and Bader met the match.
