Just the Nuts

Daniel Kochan tried to apply pressure against his opponents, but only wound up running into the nuts. With the board showing {7-Spades} {5-Diamonds} {Q-Hearts} {6-Spades}, Kochan bet 2,800. One of his two opponents raised to 7,000. Action passed back to Kochan, who quickly moved all in with {J-Spades} {8-Spades}. His opponent snap-called with the nuts, {8-Clubs} {9-Clubs} for a nine-high straight. Kochan was drawing live to the same straight for a chop and a flush for the scoop, but missed everything when the {3-Diamonds} fell on the river. He's down to 11,100.
