Moon Bubbles with Nines

Level 17 : 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante

Jason Smith raised to 13,000 in early position and it folded to Chris Moon in the big blind with not much more. After having a "tough time deciding" according to players at his table, he ultimately decided to put in his stack of 21,000 chips, which was called by Smith.

Chris Moon: {9-}{9-}
Jason Smith: {a-}{10-}

The players were flipping and the {10-}{3-}{a-} flop vaulted Smith into the lead. The turn was a {4-}, and with Moon needing a river nine to avoid being the bubble boy, it was not to be as the {8-} completed the board and the remaining 63 players are now in the money.
