Uke "ooopsmybad" Dauti raised to 100,000 under the gun and Tom "looter" Marchese three-bet to 350,000 from the small blind. Dauti popped it back and Marchese called off the 65,262 he had behind.

Tom "looter" Marchese: {a-Spades}{a-Hearts}{3-Spades}{2-Diamonds}
Uke "ooopsmybad" Dauti: {q-Spades}{q-Hearts}{5-Hearts}{4-Hearts}

Marchese got it in good and was primed to double through both the {3-Clubs}{4-Diamonds}{7-Clubs} flop and {k-Diamonds} turn. However, the {q-Diamonds} spiked on the river to give Dauti a set and end Marchese's run in 12th place.

WSOP History: Looking Back at the November (and October) Nines

Level 26 : 15,000/30,000, 0 ante
2014 WSOP November Nine
2014 WSOP November Nine

No stage in poker stood as a bigger goal for a tournament player than the final table of the WSOP Main Event. For years, that meant going to sleep knowing you had the chance of a lifetime, to go down in poker history in the next few days as the cameras captured your every bet, raise and fold.

All of that changed in 2008.

The year after Jerry Yang's Main Event victory was broadcast to all on ESPN's standard tape delay, organizers made a decision to try to increase the excitement and anticipation around the final table: after the final nine was reached, play would be paused. At that point, everyone left would go home with 9th-place money and the players would reconvene a few months later to play out the final table on a short tape delay.

That lasted until 2016, and this is the history of the November (and October) Nines.
