Three ways in a three-bet pot on a flop of 5♠6♣2♦, Michael Lipner checked from the small blind and Thomas Miressi checked from early position to Laura Wolkoff, who bet from middle position. Lipner raised, which got a fold from Miressi, but a three-bet from Wolkoff. Lipner called.
Lipner then check-called a bet from Wolkoff on the 10♦ turn before both players checked down on the K♠ river.
"Nines," Lipner announced as he tabled 9♥9♠.
Wolkoff nodded her head and sent her cards into the muck — awarding the large pot to Lipner.
