Fox Chips Up
Level 16
: 3,000/6,000, 1,000 ante
The reigning World Series of Poker Europe Main Event champion Elio Fox has just taken two pots in the recent minutes to chip up a bit, thanks in large part to using aggression as his weapon.
On the first hand, Fox three-bet to 42,000 from the big blind after Bill Perkins raised to 15,000 from under the gun. Perkins folded and Fox won the pot.
Shortly thereafter, Fox reraised to 32,000 from the button after Kunimaro Kojo opened to 12,000 from the cutoff seat. Kojo called and took the 
flop out of position. Kojo checked and Fox bet 30,000. Kojo folded and Fox won this pot as well.
Vichman Doubles with Queens
From under the gun, one of the short stacks in the field Leonid Vichman raised to 15,000. Isaac Haxton three-bet to 37,000 from the hijack seat and then Mike McDonald four-bet to 74,000 from the big blind. Vichman took his time and then reraised all in for 146,000 total. Haxton folded and McDonald called.
Vichman: 
McDonald: 
A board of 
followed and Vichman's queens held strong. McDonald sent over the chips and Vichman doubled through.
