Baeza Scoops with Nines
Level 11
: Blinds 1,500/2,500, 2,500 ante
After some preflop shenanigans, Bryan Broussard, Anastacio Baeza, and another player get all of the chips into the middle, with Broussard covering.
Player: A♦J♦
Anastacio Baeza: 9♦9♠
Bryan Broussard: A♥K♠
Baeza was ahead with his pocket nines but would need to fade a lot to hold up.
Luckily for him, the runout of 10♠2♥Q♣2♣8♦ was exactly what he needed and he and his nines scooped the pot for more than a double while one player with ace-jack exited.
