Top Pair Not Good Enough for Jessop

Sam Jessop
Sam Jessop
Sam Jessop is down with the short stacks after a recent encounter with Zac Romano. Jessop was the one who got things started preflop by raising to 825. Romano, with position, was the only caller.

The flop came down all diamonds -- {K-Diamonds} {7-Diamonds} {6-Diamonds}. Jessop fired out a continuation bet of 800 that Romano raised to 1,800. Jessop pondered his action briefly before calling.

On the {5-Spades} turn, Jessop checked it over to Romano, who bet 4,000. Jessop was clearly unhappy as he tanked for about a minute. When he finally folded, he mucked his hand face-up, showing {K-Hearts} {Q-Hearts}. Romano obliged by showing {A-Diamonds} {4-Diamonds} for the nut flush.

Jessop has 9,500 remaining chips.
