Kelly Getting Shorter

JP Kelly raised to 36,000 in middle position, and it folded around to Nicolas Divella in the big blind. He three bet it to 80,000, and Kelly made the call. The flop came down {9-Diamonds}{j-Clubs}{a-Clubs}, and Divella kept up the aggression with a bet of 108,000. Kelly tanked for about 90 seconds before calling, and the {k-Hearts} hit the turn. Divella wouldn't let up, firing out a big bet of 206,000. Kelly quickly released his hand, and Divella took the pot.

After that hand, Divella creeps up over a million, while Kelly drops down to 382,000.
