Simon Charette won the $3,000 Six-Max Event last year, and since there was no $2,500 version of this event last year, some consider him to be the "defending champion." Well Charette has continued to fly under the radar, as we just spotted him for the first time today a short while ago. He is grinding a short to medium stack with about 40,000.

JC Tran raised it up to 2,500 in middle position, and Roman Valerstein called from the button, as did the big blind. The flop came down 
, and it was checked to Tran, who c-bet to 8,000. Only Valerstein called, and the turn brought the . Tran moved all in, and Valerstein quickly called.
Valerstein:

The turn was certainly an action card, as it gave Valerstein the second nut flush, and Tran the nut flush draw. Tran would need a spade to survive, but the 
came on the river, ending the pro's day early.
