The details of this hand were provided to PokerNews courtesy of Esther Taylor

Four players paid 2,000 to see the {k-Diamonds}{k-Hearts}{5-Hearts} flop. Taylor led out for 3,000, and got two callers.

The {j-Diamonds} came on the turn, and Taylor continued for 8,000 and got the same callers, leading to the {q-Diamonds} on the river. Action checked over to the player in the one seat, who moved all in for 15,000. Taylor called with about 15,000 left behind. The third player rejammed to put Taylor all in as well, but she folded {k-}{5-} face up.

The rejammer had jacks full of kings, while the original jammer had the ace high flush, and was promptly sent to the rail. Taylor had gotten blown off the best hand, but would win a pot a few hands later to get back to starting stack. She is just two days removed from a second-place finish in the $1,500 No-Limit Hold'em/Pot-Limit Omaha event, for which she took home a cash of $171,787.

"I just want everyone to know how bad I am at Hold'em," she commented jokingly after recapping the hand, "specifically No-Limit."
