Pocket 9's in the final hand? Its always a nice hand to have on HU, although many don't like it, not knowing how to play it. Of course that, if a 99 player is in the lead, he wont be afraid of oponent's atack and probably will make an all in to any bet, but if things arent at this point when watching the flop, its only needed one figure in the table to make 99 shake.
