Gomes Gets One

During a recent hand action had folded around to Alexandre Gomes in the cut off position, he opted to bet and made it 500. The big blind was the only one willing to call, and both players got to see a {9-Spades}{6-Diamonds}{4-Hearts} flop. Both players knuckled and it was off to the turn,

The {7-Spades} decided to make an appearance on fourth street and with it came bet of 625 from Gomes and a call from his opponent. The {10-Spades} river was apparently irrelevant, as both players checked. The big blind showed first and flipped over {j-Hearts}{5-Hearts} for jack high and a busted straight draw. Gomes countered the jack high by flipping {9-Clubs}{2-Clubs} for a pair of winning nines.
