Lipnitskii Shows a Better Nine
Level 6
: Blinds 300/600, 600 ante
Vladimir Lipnitskii opened to 1,200 on the button and found one caller in Konstantinos Markakis from the big blind.
Markakis check-called a 2,000 bet from Lipnitskii on the 9♣8♠5♦ flop and a 2,500 bet from Lipnitskii on the Q♣ turn.
Both players checked down on the 3♦ river and Markakis turned over 9♥4♥ for a pair of nines. Lipnitskii tabled J♥9♦ for nines with a better kicker and dragged the pot.
