Leigh Hits Hand on Turn, So Does Opponent

Level 9 : 300/600, 75 ante

We found this hand developing on the flop between Jennifer Leigh, on the button, and an unknown player. The board was {8-Diamonds} {7-Diamonds} {J-Hearts} and Leigh bet 1,650 after it was checked to her. Her opponent called and the turn came {J-Diamonds}. Her opponent checked again and Leigh bet out 4,000. He called and the river came {5-Spades}. Her opponent took the lead this time and bet 2,025.

Leigh wrinkled her face and announced raise, making it 7,025 to go. The player moved all in for only 2,000 more to Leigh and she called. Her opponent tabled {8-Spades} {8-Clubs} for a turned full house. Leigh sighed and flashed {A-Diamonds} {10-Diamonds} making a flush on the turn. She's down to around 14,000 chips.
