Alex Foxen Eliminated in 14th Place ($12,250)

Level 16 : 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante

Alex Foxen

Justin Vaysman opened from middle position, and Alex Foxen defended from the big blind, committing roughly half of his extremely short stack.

The two players checked the flop and turn on the A4KQ8 runout. Foxen checked, Vaysman bet enough to put Foxen all-in, and Foxen called. Foxen had turned a pair with Q6, but Vaysman showed 44 for a flopped set to send Foxen to the rail.
