Foxen gets Counterfeited, Still Scoops

Level 4 : 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante

Rainer Kempe opened to 4,500 from the hijack, Stephen Chidwick called on the button and Alex Foxen defended his big blind. The dealer fanned out {4-Spades}{10-Hearts}{q-Spades} on the flop and all three players checked to the {5-Clubs} on the turn.

Foxen took his entire shot clock before he pushed in a bet of 15,000 and both of his opponents called. A {10-Diamonds} came on the river, all three checked and Foxen tabled {5-Spades}{4-Clubs} for two pair. Both Kempe and Chidwick mucked, sending the pot to Foxen.
