James Casement raised to 120,000 in middle position and Seth Fischer three-bet to 375,000 on the button. Casement then four-bet shoved all in for 2,335,000, putting himself at risk.
It was visible that Fischer was faced with a tough decision and after some consideration, he arrived at a fold.
Action picked up on the turn with the board showing J♥9♦Q♠6♣ in a hand between the small blind, Facundo Vazquez in the big blind, and a player in early position.
Both the blinds checked and the player in early position bet 375,000, which resulted in the small blind folding.
Vazquez then put himself at risk by check-raising his remaining 1,320,000, which sent his opponent in the tank.
“Straight?” the opponent asked, while studying the board.
Vazquez didn’t respond and looked forward.
“I’m going to call,” the opponent said as he moved chips forward and then saw the bad news.
Facundo Vazquez: K♠10♦
Opponent: K♦K♣
The dealer placed K♥ on the river, which draw a brief cheer from the opponent before he realized trip kings didn’t beat Vazquez’s flopped straight.
Kristen Foxen raised to 100,000 from early position and got called by Dana Muse in the hijack, Dimitrios Gkatzas in the cutoff, and Daniel Barrett on the buttion.
The flop came 9♠7♠3♣, and action checked all around.
The Q♥ turn and 8♣ river also checked through, and Foxen tabled the winner with Q♠10♥.
