Foxen Wins the Classic Race to Knock Out Yokosawa
Level 3
: Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante
Kristen Foxen raised to 4,000 from under the gun and was called by Ed Miller in the cutoff. It then folded to Masato Yokosawa in the small blind, who three-bet to 20,000. After the big blind folded, Foxen responded with a four-bet to 45,000. Miller folded, before Yokosawa five-bet all in for his stack of 154,500. Foxen took a moment before making the call to put Yokosawa at risk.
Masato Yokosawa: A♣K♠ 
Kristen Foxen: Q♥Q♦
It was a classic race with Foxen in front with her pocket queens. She would then stay in front once the board ran out 9♣J♦J♥10♣5♣ to give her the pot and eliminate Yokosawa.
