Brett Murray Wins Circuit Thunder Valley Main Event ($151,145); Viet Tran Eliminated in 2nd Place ($93,444)
Brett Murray - $151,145
Brett Murray wins the Main Event at WSOP Circuit Thunder Valley, eliminating Viet Tran in one last big hand. The chips go in after a flop, as Murray bets 800,000, Tran instantly moves all in, and Murray quickly calls. They expose their cards:
Viet Tran -
Brett Murray -
Tran needs a nine for the inside straight or runner-runner help. Instead it's a turn and a river, sealing Murray's third career Circuit win.
A full recap will be posted later tonight.
