Kostristyn Doubles with Nines

Level 6 : 150/300, 0 ante

In one of the last hands before the level went up, there was a pot with around 2,100 in it when the player in the big blind checked and Alexander Kostritsyn bet 2,000 from middle position. The player in the cutoff called, the button and big blind folded and it was heads-up action to the {K-Clubs} turn. Kostritsyn wasted little time in betting his last 4,125 and the cutoff quickly called.

Kostritsyn: {8-Clubs}{9-Clubs}{5-Diamonds}{j-Diamonds}
Cutoff: {a-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds}{j-Clubs}{6-Clubs}

"I missed," the cutoff said when the {2-Hearts} completed the board on the river. "Nines win it?"

"Why shouldn't it?" Kostritsyn asked as his lowly pair of nine was pushed the pot.
