After a flop of 9h9c5d, action checked to Nick Palma, who bet 1,600 from UTG+1. The big blind and the UTG player both called.

The turn card was the Ks, and it checked to Palma again. Palma bet 5,000, the big blind folded, and the UTG player called.

The river card was the Ah, and both players checked. Palma showed AdQc for two pair, aces and nines, and the UTG player flashed a king before he mucked. Palma won the pot.

Nick Palma  –  44,000  (110 bb)
