River vs cards in hand

Question

Ok I was playing a game of hold 'em with some friends and something similar to the following scenario came up:

Hand 1: A,6

Hand 2: A,2

Table: 2,A,6,9,9

The question is: Does hand 1 win the pot or is it a split pot?

That's what I was thinking, thanks for the confirmation. My friends are happy with the answer too. – Chucky Feb 28 '16 at 09:25
