One Foxen In, One Foxen Out

Level 14 : Blinds 3,000/5,000, 5,000 ante
Kristen Foxen
Kristen Foxen

Kristen Foxen raised to 10,000 preflop and when it folded to Shai Zurr in the small blind, he went all in for exactly 50,000.

Foxen went into the tank but eventually made the crying call and cards were on their backs.

Shai Zurr: JJ All in
Kristen Foxen: A8

The flop brought the 81010, the turn peeled the Q, still favoring Zurr but it was lights out for him when the A fell, awarding Foxen the pot.

Kristen Foxen's husband, Alex Foxen, was seen leaving the tournament area and his table was muttering something about how he jammed Qx9x and ran into kings.

Coopersmith Stands to Leave and Sits Back Down

Level 14 : Blinds 3,000/5,000, 5,000 ante

Stefan Clemens raised from early position to 8,000, Or Nezer three-bet to 32,000, and Brian Coopersmith moved all in for his last 28,000. Clemens called, creating a 10,000 side pot. The flop came out with 3210, and Nezer and Clemens both checked.

On the turn 8, Nezer checked, Coopersmith stood up to leave, and Clemens put in a bet of 20,000. Nezer folded, and Clemens collected the side pot.

Brian Coopersmith: AK All in
Stefan Clemens: AJ

The river brought the 7, and Coopersmith sat back down as his ace high was golden for the win.

Chance Kornuth
Chance Kornuth

Three ways to a flop of 987, Chance Kornuth and John Hennigan checked to Ian Matakis.

Hennigan folded and Matakis snap-mucked his hand as Kornuth collected the chips.
