Foxen Gets Dusted by the River

Picking up the action on the turn, Alex Foxen was in a heads-up pot with around 8,000 in the middle. The board read A♥6♦3♠10♦ and Foxen checked from the big blind. His opponent bet 5,000 and Foxen check-raised all in for around 31,000 which his opponent quickly called.

Alex Foxen: 6♣3♦
Opponent: A♦K♣

Foxen flopped two pair and had the lead on his opponent. However, the A♠ peeled off on the river and Foxen was eliminated.

"You don't often see the double check-raise," one player at the table said after the hand.
