Marco Johnson raised from the small blind and Phil Ivey defended his big blind.

Johnson bet after the dealer spread the 5♣9♠9♣ flop and Ivey called.

Johnson went for a check-call against Ivey's bets on the 8♣ turn, and then again when the 6♥ completed the board.

Ivey showed A♠9♦ for trip nines on the flop, prompting Johnson to muck.
