Nguyen With Nines

When we reached the table, the board read {5-Diamonds}{6-Hearts}{8-Spades}. Stephanie Nguyen, Samuel Golbuff and Javier Torresola got three bets in, and the turn was the {3-Spades}. The action checked to Nguyen who bet, and only Torresola called.

The river was another three - the {3-Diamonds} - and both players checked. Torresola opened {a-Clubs}{6-Clubs} for a pair of sixes, but Nguyen had him beat with {9-Clubs}{9-Spades} for a pair of nines.
