Negreanu Gets Sneaky

Level 1
: Blinds 0/0, 100 ante

The action was picked up in a multi-way pot of 800 on a flop showing A?Q?9?. An under-the-gun player, Daniel Negreanu next to act, the cutoff and Dee Tiller on the button all checked their options to the 6? turn.
The under-the-gun player checked to Negreanu who tossed out a bet of 600. The cutoff folded and Tiller put in a raise to 2,000, which only Negreanu called.
The K? completed the board and both players checked to a showdown. Tiller rolled over 9?6? for two pair but Negreanu announced "trips" and tabled Q?Q? to scoop the pot.
"Wow, I thought I had you. You're being sneaky today," said Tiller as Negreanu laughed and stacked his chips.
