Roles Reversed For Foxen

Tyler Boyer

Level 18 : Blinds 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante

Kristen Foxen was forced all in from the big blind for her last 100,000 and was at risk against Alexander Zubov, under the gun, having AxAx against her Kx8x.

On Day 2a, Foxen doubled up on the stone bubble with pocket aces (and min-cashed for $50,000 on one bullet), but today she ran into aces and was eliminated after Zubov flopped a set, and she was drawing dead on the turn.

The remaining 203 players were on the stone bubble.

Level 18 : Blinds 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante

Action was picked up with Dominykas Mikolaitis all in for 520,000 from the big blind, and Belarmino De Souza in middle position putting him at risk.

Dominykas Mikolaitis: Q♥Q♣ All in
Belarmino De Souza: A♠K♥

It was a classic race, just three eliminations from the money, but unfortunately for Mikolatis, his queens couldn't hold on the A♥J♠7♦4♠K♦ runout as De Souza made two pair to knock him out three spots from the money.

Level 18 : Blinds 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante

Amirpasha Emami opened to 200,000 from early position, and Tomas Jozonis called from the button. Emami check-called for 170,000 on the K♦J♥8♥ flop, but folded to a bet of 750,000 on the 6♦ turn.

On the neighboring table, Xixiang Luo raised to 200,000 from middle position, and Sinan Unlu called from the hijack.

The 6♠3♠3♣ flop checked through to the 3♥ turn, where Unlu called a bet of 375,000. The 6♥ completed the board, and Luo fired out 790,000. Unlu chucked several time banks to the dealer while he went into the tank. He eventually found the call, and Luo tabled K♦9♠ for a stone-cold bluff. Unlu took the pot with 7♣7♦.

Isaiah Goldman was at risk on Table 113 on a completed board showing 9♠7♣4♣3♠K♥.

Goldman showed down K♣9♦ for top two pair, while his opponent tabled K♠4♥ for an inferior two pair. Goldman collected the double-up.

On the next table over, Taran Parmar opened to 200,000 in the hijack before Diego Zeiter shoved from the small blind for his last 170,000. Poseidon Ho called in the big blind, and action was checked through the K♣A♥9♥10♦4♦ runout.

Zeiter tabled 7♣7♦, while Parmar had 10♥2♣ for a pair of tens. Ho turned over A♦6♦ for a pair of aces, claiming the pot and sending Zeiter to the rail.

Sergi Reixach: K♠J♦ All in
Dennys Ramos: A♠6♠

Reixach needed to improve to stay in the tournament, but when the board ran out 4♥Q♣3♣4♦7♣, the ace-high of Ramos remained best, giving him the pot and eliminating Reixach.

In a heads-up pot on a flop of 6♠4♣K♥, Jamil Wakil checked and Tom Middleton bet 150,000. Wakil check-raised to 330,000 and Middleton three-bet jammed. Wakil used some time banks and called for around 550,000 more.

Wakil was in tip-top shape and nothing changed on the runout of 8♠5♥ to earn him a double.

Severino Turns the Nuts to Double

Level 18 : Blinds 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante

Action was picked up with Jose Severino all in and Natasha Mercier putting him at risk. Before the cards were turned over, Mercier said, "I don't even know what I have,"

Jose Severino: K♠Q♥ All in
Natasha Mercier: 3♠2♣

Mercier had some fun when sweating her cards, and although she had the "dirty diaper," she still had two live cards to bust Severino. She jumped into the lead after pairing her three on the A♠10♠3♦ flop. However, it was just momentarily as the J♦ on the turn gave Severino the nuts with Broadway, and the A♥ on the river officially gave him the double-up.
