Little a Little Smaller

We were a little late getting to this pot, but arrived in time to see John Little bet 1,100 into a flop of {8-Diamonds}{q-Hearts}{6-Hearts}. He got called from his opponent and both players checked the {10-Diamonds} on the turn.

When the {5-Diamonds} came on the river Little took some time before deciding to check. His opponent was also slow to act, but eventually bet 1,550 into the pot. Little double-checked his cards, arranged his chips, and eventually made the call.

Little's opponent showed {k-Hearts}{k-Clubs} and Little, unable to beat it, mucked his hand. He's still sitting with about 6,000 chips, though.
