Show if I show?

Level 6 : 100/200, 25 ante

PJ Jafari claimed to be playing well and in a recent hand he showed he was bringing some moves out. On a flop of {4-Clubs}{6-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds} his opponent bet 1,475 and Jafari raised him to 5,500.

Jafari’s opponent seemed unsure quite what to make of this. When he folded they both agreeed to show their hands and Jafari twirled over the {j-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds}. His opponent showed that he was throwing away {9-}{9-}.
