The Nines Giveth, The Nines Taketh
Livello 26
: Blinds 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante
Tom Bona, a short stack, went all-in in early position and was called by Phil Hellmuth to his left and by another player in late position.
A side pot was created when Hellmuth bet 100,000 on a board of 2♣A♥5♣. His opponent called and the K♠ peeled on the turn. Both players checked and the 9♠ hit the river.
Another round of checks prompted Hellmuth to turn over J♠J♣, his opponent turned over the J♥J♦ and, ironically for Hellmuth, Tom Bona rolled over the 9♥9♦ for the main pot. The jacks chopped the side.
