Vieira's Three-Bet Doesn't Shake Cynn

Level 2 : 1,000/3,000, 3,000 ante

John Cynn opened to 8,000 from the hijack and Joao Vieira three-bet to 30,000 on the button. The blinds folded and Cynn called to see the flop of {a-Spades}{9-Clubs}{6-Diamonds}. Cynn checked and Vieira continued for 30,000 which Cynn called.

The turn brought the {4-Spades} and both players checked to the {8-Hearts} on the river. Cynn checked again and Vieira quickly checked back. Cynn tabled {j-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds} for a pair of nines and Vieira mucked his cards.
