888poker signed JC Tran shortly after making the final table of the 2013 WSOP Main Event as the November Nine Chipleader.
The decision was probably mutual beneficial as J.C. Tran is not able to represent 888poker online as poker pro with online poker not legally available in Sacramento, California.
This year 888poker have sponsored Bruno Foster as their November Nine representative at the 2014 WSOP Main Event Final Table. If Foster wins the Main Event it will be the first time a Brazilian player has captured the title.
