Deeb Focused on Chipping Up

Level 16
: Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante

No-Limit Hold'em
Varahram Vardjavand put out a bet of 13,000 from early position on a flop of 9?A?K? and was called by Shaun Deeb on the button.
Vardjavand slowed down with a check on the K? turn and Deeb fired 20,000, which Vardjavand called.
After an intense stare-down, Deeb fired again on the 10? river, this time for 40,000 and after some deliberation, Vardjavand made the call.
Deeb showed down A?J? for two pair and Vardjavand mucked.
"Ace-nine?" Asked Deeb, with Vardjavand nodding yes.
