Duckworth Takes A Hit

Preflop, Tim Duckworth opened to 450 from under the gun and got one call before another opponent made it 1,500 to go. Duckworth and the other player both called, along with a third opponent, going to the {6-Diamonds}{4-Clubs}{8-Spades} flop.

All three players checked the flop and on the {3-Hearts} turn one of the players came out firing 10,000. The other players folded and Duckworth set the aggressor all in for 15,500 after sitting in the tank for around three minutes. The opponent called.

Duckworth: {j-?}{j-?}
Opponent: {5-?}{5-?}

Duckworth looked set to add to his chip lead but the {7-Spades} spiked the river to make his opponent a straight. Duckworth is down to 32,000.
