Tilly a Goner

Level 3 : 50/100, 0 ante

A player in middle position raised to 300, the cutoff called as did Jennifer Tilly on the button. The three players saw the {j-Diamonds}{3-Clubs}{9-Hearts} flop and everyone checked. The turn was the {5-Clubs} and after one check, the next player led out for 475. Tilly, next to act, pushed all in for 1,475 and the bettor called.

Tilly: {5-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds}
Opponent: {k-Hearts}{j-Hearts}

Tilly had to dodge a king, jack or nine to double up but was unable to hit brick. The river was a jack and it sent Tilly to the rail.
