Opportunity Lost

After Farzad Rouhani limped, John Esposito did the same and the player in the cutoff moved all in for 4,700. Rouhani and Esposito called, and the two checked it down as the board ran out {5-Spades}

{5-Spades}

{5-Diamonds}

{9-Hearts}

{2-Hearts}

{J-Clubs}

. Rouhani turned over {J-Diamonds}

{J-Diamonds}

{10-Spades}

for the pair of jacks on the river and the all-in player mucked his hand. Esposito showed {9-Diamonds}

{9-Diamonds}

{6-Diamonds}

, meaning he'd had top pair on the flop and been run down on the river. "I play so bad," he moaned as he saw that a bet after the flop probably would've won him the pot. He's down to 27,000 while Farzad is up to 53,000.
