Foxen Applies Max Pressure on Wantman's Kings

Level 2 : Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante

Action was picked up on the river with the board showing 6♠7♥9♥6♣3♣ and roughly 50,000 in the pot.

Matthew Wantman was facing a bet from Alex Foxen, that would put Wantman all in for his stack of 98,500.

Wantman used two time extensions, before finding the call and tabling K♥K♦, and his kings were good after Foxen tossed Q♣8♥ for a missed straight and queen high into the muck, to give Wantman the double.
