Johnston Good at Showdown

Level 16 : 2,500/5,000, 5,000 ante

Paul Johnston opened to 12,000 from early position, and received calls from the cutoff and button, along with Seyed Sarkeshik in the big blind.

On the 9♦8♠3♥ flop, Sarkeshik led out with a bet of 18,000, and was met with a raise to 55,000 from Johnston. The cutoff and button folded, and Sarkeshik called.

The Q♠ turn and 4♦ river were checked through. Sarkeshik declared "One pair" but mucked when Johnston tabled K♣9♣ for a pair of nines.
