Lipnitskii Shows a Better Nine

Level 6
: Blinds 300/600, 600 ante

Vladimir Lipnitskii opened to 1,200 on the button and found one caller in Konstantinos Markakis from the big blind.
Markakis check-called a 2,000 bet from Lipnitskii on the 9?8?5? flop and a 2,500 bet from Lipnitskii on the Q? turn.
Both players checked down on the 3? river and Markakis turned over 9?4? for a pair of nines. Lipnitskii tabled J?9? for nines with a better kicker and dragged the pot.
