Bjorin's Nines Don't Hold

Anthony Wise raised it up to 17,000 from middle position and found a caller in Chris Bjorin. The dealer spread a flop {5-Spades}{7-Spades}{8-Clubs} and Wise bet out 22,000, and Bjorin moved all in. Wise made the call and cards were flipped over.

Bjorin: {9-Spades}{9-Diamonds}
Wise: {A-Spades}{Q-Spades}

Bjorin possessed an gut-shot straight draw and a pair of nines, while his opponent had a flush draw and an over-pair draw. The {10-Clubs} on the turn gave Bjorin an open-ended straight draw, but a {j-Spades} on the river put the best of it in Wise's hand. His nut flush was more than enough to claim the pot, and Bjorin was eliminated.
