Macdonnell's Nines Hold Up

Level 13 : 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante
Marc Macdonnell
Marc Macdonnell

Marc Macdonnell opened to 4,400 from middle position and was called by William Remshardt in the small blind and Bryan Piccioli in the big blind. The flop fell {q-Hearts}{7-Diamonds}{2-Hearts} and the action checked around to the {2-Diamonds} on the turn.

Piccioli was the first to take a shot at the pot with a bet of 7,000 but was called by both Macdonnell and Remschart. The {3-Spades} completed the board and all three players checked again. Remschart tabled {8-Spades}{7-Spades} but Macdonnell held {9-Spades}{9-Diamonds} for a bigger two pair to take down the pot.
