Called (and won!) with 9-high.

Anyone have a similar story? My 6max table had just dissolved leaving only me and Villain, and he had been aggressive up till this point. This was the first time he didn't bet preflop, flop, or turn, and not even semi-bluffing anywhere screamed baby cards, no draw. I could've bet the turn or river meself, I guess, I dunno, small pot, scary board, tail end of a satisfying session anyway....well, whaddaya think?

I heard a story of Brunson making some great call with jack high, putting his opponent on a busted draw, and I read the article with Ungar calling and winning with ten high. Now I've done nine. Anyone win with eight high?
