Javier with Nines
Level 17
: Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante
Igor Picone raised to 12,000 from under the gun, and was called by Francisco Javier on the button. Down to four blinds, Clément Van Driessche went into the tank from the big blind, but folded.
The dealer fanned a flop of 8♥5♦7♠ which was checked by both players. But on the turn 4♦, Picone bet 20,000. Javier called.
The 3♦ came on the river, and both players checked again. Picone then revealed K♣10♣ for king-high, but Javier had 9♣9♦ for a pair.
