Late Triple for Short-Stacked Veenman

Richard Veenman got his remaining 4,300 all in preflop and was up against two opponents. When the flop fell {J-Clubs}{Q-Clubs}{A-Clubs}, the big blind checked, the button bet, and a call followed. It then went check-bet-fold on the {6-Diamonds} turn, leaving Veenman heads up against the button.

Veenman: {9-Clubs}{9-Diamonds}
Button: {A-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}

Veenman was in bad shape and needed a club or nine to stay alive. Lucky for him, the river delivered said club and he more than triple.
