Tufat Getting Thinner

The under-the-gun player limped, and Andrew "Tufat" Teng overlimped from middle position. The cutoff and both blinds came along to see a {q-Clubs}{9-Hearts}{8-Spades} flop five-handed. Action checked to Tufat, who bet 2,300. The cutoff flat called, and after the blinds folded, the first limper called as well. The turn brought the {7-Clubs}, and the player first to act checked again. Tufat asked the cutoff for a count before betting 8,700. The cutoff quickly moved all in for just 3,900 more. The third guy folded, and Tufat called the extra chips.

"Same hand?" asked the all-in player as he showed {j-Diamonds}{10-Spades} for the flopped nut straight. Tufat could only shake his head and show {q-Spades}{7-Spades} for two pair. The {2-Hearts} on the river didn't fill Tufat's boat, and he fell to 38,000.
