Nine High Like a... What?

Level 6 : 400/800, 800 ante

Robert Ashelm raised to 1,600 from under the gun and he was only called by Saleh Masoodian who defended from the big blind.

Ashelm continued for 1,800 on the 10♥A♠7♦ flop. Masoodian check-called, then both players checked the K♣ turn and the 3♦ river.

First player to reveal his cards, Masoodian flipped over 9♣8♣ for a missed straight draw and was waiting to see the winning hand. But to his surprise, Ashelm mucked his cards so Ashelm won this one with nine-high.
