J.C. Tran Wins First Bracelet

July 2, 2008

J.C Tran has now won his first WSOP gold bracelet having notched up yet another impressive win. He took down the $1500 no-limit hold 'em event number 49 at the WSOP in Las Vegas scooping $631,170 for his trouble.

Tran has already had great success on the poker circuit, with already a World Poker Tour title, 5 WPT final table finishes and a PokerStars WCOOP Main event title. Despite managing a second place finish at this same event at the WSOP in the past, he hadnʼt yet secured a first place win. Well, now he can rest easy because he has done it!

His heads up opponent was Rasmus Nielsen who he was very much behind in terms of chips stacks. Nielsen held over twice as many in fact as the eventual winner. He managed to climb his way back though and winning two big hands helped to push him into the lead from which Nielson was unable to recover from. Nielson took away $389,557 for his second place win which is not a bad consolation prize!
