Racener Loses a Little

[user198205]

Kathy Liebert raised to 800 from middle position and was called by a player in late position as well as John Racener on the button and the big blind. The flop came {9-Clubs} {8-Hearts} {7-Spades} and action checked to Racener who bet 1,500. The big blind called and the other players folded. Both players checked when the {j-Spades} came on the turn but after the {3-Spades} fell on the river the big blind tossed out a bet of 2,850. Racener called but then mucked his hand after his opponent showed the {9-Spades} {8-Spades} for a flush.
