Foxen Cracks Roiter's Kings a Second Time
Gettings kings cracked is painful. But getting them cracked twice in the same orbit, by the same opponent, is inconceivable.
Alex Foxen opened to 50,000 from under the gun and Martin Kabrhel called on the button before Klemens Roiter three-bet jammed a stack of 215,000 from the small blind. Foxen called and Kabrhel called after a lengthy Hollywood that included asking for a count of a bet that had already been confirmed.
"You didn't expect that, did you?" Kabrhel said before wishing Roiter good luck. "Two for Austria against stupid hoodie guy."
Foxen sized down to 160,000 on the J♦3♠4♠ flop and Kabrhel called. Foxen then bet 125,000 on the A♣ turn and Khabrel folded to the "weird bet."
Klemens Roiter: K♣K♥ 
Alex Foxen: A♠J♣
Foxen had once again turned as ace against Roiter's kings and it ended up being the final blow as the 5♥ river confirmed Roiter's elimination.
"At least apologize to the man," said Kabrhel.
"I just gave him an apologetic glance," replied Foxen.
