Black's Set Falls to a Straight

There were 1,300 chips in the pot as three players, including Andy Black, saw a {8-Diamonds} {7-Spades} {2-Diamonds} flop. The action was checked to Black, who bet 500. Both opponents called. The turn was the {J-Diamonds}. Seat 2 checked to Black, who checked to the player in Seat 4. Seat 4 bet 1,300, Seat 2 raised to 3,000, Black called and Seat 2 called. The river was the {K-Clubs}. Seat 2 checked, Black bet 1,000, Seat 4 folded and Seat 2 called.

Black turned over {7-Hearts} {7-Diamonds} for a set but his opponent showed {9-Spades} {10-Spades} for a straight to take down the pot. Black was left with 23,000.
