Suited Cards Don't Count for More

A player in middle position raised to 150. Kenna James made the call from the cutoff. The small blind re-popped it to 400. The original raiser called, as did James.

The flop came down {J-Clubs} {10-Spades} {4-Diamonds} and it checked around. The small blind checked the turn after it fell the {7-Hearts} and the player in middle position bet to 700. James made a raise to 1,700. Only the middle-position player called.

The river was the {4-Spades} and it checked to James. He bet 1,500 and the player called. Both players turned up {K-?} {J-?}, but James had it in spades and commented, "I should get 3% more of the pot because I was suited."
