Zobrist Cracks Four-Pair with Two-Pair in Deeb-Approved Hand

Level 15
: 3,000/5,000, 5,000 ante
Shaun Deeb recounted a hand that had just occurred at his table, describing it as both newsworthy and "Deeb-approved".
Ken Zobrist opened to 8,000 from the button and Robert Gussoni defended his big blind.
Gussoni checked on the 2?5?6? flop and called a 26,000 pot bet from Zobrist. Both players checked the 9? turn and Q? river.
"I have all the pairs" Zobrist reportedly said, tabling 2x5x6x9x for two-pair with sixes and nines. Zobrist showed two aces and looked like he was about to concede the pot before taking a closer look at his other two hole cards. Zobrist tabled AxAxQx9x for a higher two-pair on the river to take down the pot.
