Fox Clips Koon

Level 8 : 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante

On a board of {A-Clubs}{9-Diamonds}{9-Spades}{10-Hearts}{3-Clubs} with around 75,000 in the middle, Jason Koon bet out 18,000 only to have Elio Fox raise to 70,000.

Koon used one of his time extension chips, and then made the call.

Fox tabled his {A-Spades}{Q-Clubs} for aces-up, and Koon mucked.

Jason Koon

Koray Aldemir opened for 7,000 in the cutoff and Jason Koon made it 19,000 on the button. Aldemir shoved, covering Koon's stack of 98,000, and Koon quickly slid in his chips.

Aldemir: {a-Clubs}{k-Clubs}
Koon: {a-Hearts}{q-Hearts}

Things looked grim for Koon when the window card was the {k-Spades} but the {10-Spades}{j-Clubs} that followed gave him the nuts. The {3-Hearts} and {2-Hearts} completed the board and Koon got some of his chips back.
