Leonarez's Jack Isn't Enough

Steven Smart raised to 1,600 from late position and received three callers: Junghyun An from the hijack, Geoffrey Tomes from the small blind, and Jessie Leonarez from the big blind.
Four players saw a flop come 7♣ J♣ 9♠ , and the action checked around to An. He bet 3,200, which was only called by Leonarez.
When the T♥ came on the turn, Leonarez check-called a bet of 6,000 from An.
The river brought the 6♥, and it went check-check. Leonarez showed a J♣ first and then looked over at An’s hand, which was a straight with T♥ 8♥ , leaving Leonarez to muck his other card and forfeit the pot to An.
