If 6 Was 9

Josh Weiland, down to the super short stack, pushed all in with pocket sixes and found himself up against an opponent holding 9-9.

The flop came 10-8-7. Now Weiland was rooting for a nine, and his opponent a six (or jack).

The turn was a five, giving Weiland a few more outs. And the river brought one of them, a four, giving Weiland a straight.

He's still short, though, with just 10,500.
