Froley Pairs the Board

Level 14 : 1,000/2,000, 300 ante

Nick Cipiti raised to 4,000 from early position and it folded to John Froley in the small blind. Froley moved all in for 19,500 and Cipiti called.

John Froley: {9-Clubs}{9-Spades}
Nick Cipiti: {k-Clubs}{10-Clubs}

The dealer spread the {j-Clubs}{8-Spades}{7-Spades} flop and Froley's pocket nines maintained the lead. The turn was the {9-Diamonds} giving Cipiti a straight and Froley a set of nines.

"Pair the board" shouted Froley and right on cue the {j-Spades} completed the board improving Froley to nines full of jacks to earn him the double up.
