Very Nice Laydown, Whoever You Are

Jim Hass made a raise to 1,200 and found callers in the shape of Jonah Rogers and one other player before the flop came {A-Clubs} {10-Clubs} {3-Clubs}.

All players checked so the turn came {Q-Diamonds}. Rogers led out for 2,200 that was called by the unknown player before Hass raised it up to 9,000. Rogers moved out of the way to let the other player carry on with a call.

The river {6-Hearts} caused Hass to move all in for his last 18,025. The other player though for a long time and folded {10-Hearts} {10-Diamonds} face-up!

Hass turned over {J-Hearts} {K-Spades} for the nut striaght and is up to 43,000 as a result. We tried to get the player's name who folded the set but we received a blunt "No."
