Milo's pair of Nines Get a Double Knockout
Level 12
: Blinds 1,200/2,400, 2,400 ante
Action was picked up on the flop, with the board showing 9♥8♥2♣.
A player in the big blind checked to Richard Milo in the hijack, who bet out 18,000. Frank Adams on the button made the call, before the big blind raised all in for 34,800. Milo made the call, and Adams went all in for 23,300.
Frank Adams: A♥2♥ 
Big Blind: Q♥10♥
Richard Milo: J♣9♦
Milo was ahead with his pair of nines but would have to fade the flush draw of both players, a jack, or a queen to get the double knockout. The 8♣ on the turn, and 6♣ on the river were clean cards for Milo, to take the pot and the double knockout.
