Elio Fox opened to 320,000 from the cutoff. Danny Wong three-bet all in from the small blind for 2,800,000 and Charles Johanin moved all in for 600,000 from the big blind.

"I call," said Fox, putting two players at risk.

Elio Fox: {a-Hearts}{k-Clubs}
Danny Wong: {a-Clubs}{10-Clubs}
Charles Johanin: {j-Hearts}{j-Clubs}

Johanin looked poised to triple up and ladder, but the {5-Hearts}{3-Hearts}{6-Hearts} spelt danger as it gave Fox a flush draw. In the end, he didn't need it because the turn {a-Spades} gave him the lead. Wong was drawing dead, but Johanin could still hit a jack. The river was the {4-Spades} and both Johanin and Wong were eliminated.

Level 30 : 80,000/160,000, 20,000 ante

Paul Volpe completed his small blind and Elio Fox opted to check the big blind.

The flop came {K-Spades}{J-Diamonds}{3-Hearts} on which they both checked through to the {6-Clubs} on the turn. Volpe now bet 180,000 and Fox called after considering it for a while.

The river completed the board with the {k-Clubs}, Volpe continued with another bet but now for 700,000. Fox thought about it for a while but then folded.

Volpe laughed at his rail.

"You got me?" Fox asked Volpe.

"Nah" Volpe replied.

"Ah, your smile..." Fox remarked.

"Ah no, it was my rail. They did something and I laughed." Volpe explained.

Left on fumes, Alex Foxen waited for one more hand before committing his final 45,000 to the pot. Paul Volpe raised to 280,000 on the button, Elio Fox three-bet to 1,050,000 in the small blind and Volpe gave it up.

Alex Foxen: {K-Diamonds}{Q-Diamonds}
Elio Fox: {A-Clubs}{5-Diamonds}

Fox finished what he had begun and knocked out his namesake after a {6-Hearts}{2-Spades}{4-Clubs}{4-Diamonds}{4-Hearts} rundown. The rising American star added another big five-figure score to his poker resumé.
