Troendly Takes One from "Chainsaw"

We picked this hand up on the turn as Rick Troendly made it 23,000 to go, with a nice pot in the middle already. Allen "Chainsaw" Kessler studied the board as it read: {3-Clubs} {Q-Hearts} {9-Clubs} {9-Hearts}, then made to call. A river of {5-Diamonds} prompted another bet from Troendly as he put out 15,000. It was enough for Kessler to fold, as Troendly showed {Q-?} {J-?}.
