It's Just Not Fair

Action had folded all the way to Ryan Fair who was in the cutoff seat. He raised to 1,500. A few seats over the player on the button reraised all in for a just about 6,200. Action folded back to Fair and he quickly made the call.

All In: {A-Hearts}{6-Hearts}
Fair: {Q-Hearts}{J-Clubs}

The flop came down {6-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}{10-Hearts} which gave Fair a few more outs to a gutshot straight draw. The turn was the {K-Hearts} though, giving Fair and open-ended straight draw, but also taking away any heart as an out. The river was the {2-Hearts} and that gave the all in player the nut flush, allowing him to double up his very short stack through Fair.
