All In and a Call

John Racener raised to 520,000 from the cutoff seat, and Brandon Steven came along with the call from the big blind.

Heads-up, the flop came out {10-Hearts} {7-Clubs} {3-Clubs}, and Steven checked. When Racener made his continuation bet, however, Steven moved all in on a check-raise. After about two minutes of deliberation, he called, and the cards were turned up:

Racener: {10-Spades} {J-Spades}
Steven: {10-Diamonds} {J-Diamonds}

Oh, well that's a letdown. There were no runner-runners to sweat for either player, and they took their money back as the spectators sat back down with hushed disappointment.
