Hand #54 - Jonathan Jaffe

Jonathan Jaffe has the button and makes it 45,000 to go. Kenny Tran makes the call and we see a flop of {8-Hearts} {Q-Hearts} {10-Spades}.

Tran checks to Jaffe who bets 65,000. Kenny then check-raises, making it a total of 190,000 to go. Jaffe makes the call, prompting the dealer to burn and turn the {9-Clubs}.

Both players check and 5th street brings the {J-Spades} putting a straight on the board. Tran checks, sending the action over to Jaffe who moves all in. Kenny thinks for a few moments before eventually tossing his cards in the muck.

As Jaffe raked in the pot, he accidentally exposed a king, which would've made him a king-high straight.
