Fan Favorite Jin Ju Doubles Up

On a flop of {K-Clubs}{9-Hearts}{7-Clubs}, Jin Ju bet 1800. Her opponent, on the button, told her "I have a pretty big hand here" before calling. When the turn came {5-Diamonds}, Ju confidently pushed in the rest of her chips. The button, who a few minutes prior had called a different player's river bet with only ace-high (which was good), deliberated for two minutes before calling. The players opened their hands:

Ju: {A-Clubs}{K-Diamonds}
Button: {J-Diamonds}{J-Hearts}

The river {4-Diamonds} was no help to the button and Ju doubled up. She currently has approximately 16,000 chips.
