Foxen Takes the Lead With Big Double Through Ausmus
Level 17
: Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante
Jeremy Ausmus opened to 85,000 from the button, and Kristen Foxen defended from the big blind.
The flop came A♠9♥7♥. Foxen checked, Ausmus bet 175,000, and Foxen check-raised to 450,000. Ausmus called.
Foxen continued with a 400,000 bet on the J♦ turn, and Ausmus called again. On the 3♠ river, Foxen bet 1,000,000, leaving 5,000 behind, and Ausmus called.
Ausmus had top pair with A♣K♣, but Foxen had turned the nut-straight with 10♥8♣ to effectively double into the chip lead.
