Soulier Set Straight

Fabrice Soulier got into it from the big blind with a player in the small blind. They were heads up to a {j-Spades}{10-Hearts}{9-Clubs} flop. The small blind checked, then called when Soulier bet 8,000. The turn was the {2-Hearts}, and this time, the small blind check-called 14,000. The {8-Spades} river put four to a straight on the board, and the small blind checked a third time. Soulier checked behind, and his opponent tabled {q-Hearts}{j-Diamonds} for the rivered straight. Soulier flashed a set of nines that could have been so much more useful. Soulier dropped the minimum to move down to 325,000.
