Trey-Nine is Good

In a hand that turned out to be a battle of the blinds, Ty Stewart opened with a 2,000 bet on a board showing {J-Hearts} {J-Spades} {A-Diamonds} {9-Hearts}. Chris Dombrowski then kicked it up to 6,500 from the big blind and Stewart made a quick call.

The river delivered the {Q-Diamonds} and both players checked, sending things straight to the showdown. Stewart tabled {3-?} {9-?} for two pair, jacks and nines, and Dombrowski mucked.
