Kessler Loses Race

Allen Kessler was in a classic "overcards vs pair" race against an all-in opponent with his {A-Hearts}{K-Hearts} up against the {J-Diamonds}{J-Spades} of the short stack.

Kessler could not find a pair on a board of {7-Hearts}{10-Hearts}{6-Clubs}{9-Clubs}{10-Spades} and is left with only 2,600 in change.
