Foxen Puts River Pressure on Boivin
Level 23
: Blinds 400,000/800,000, 800,000 ante
Fresh off winning a small pot versus Seth Davies, Thomas Boivin in the big blind called a button raise to 1,800,000 by Alex Foxen. Foxen had the K♣5♣ and was trailing versus 9♠9♣. Following the A♣8♥2♥ flop, Boivin check-called for 1,200,000 and they checked the J♥ on the turn.
The river brought the fourth heart with the 7♥ and Boivin bet 4,200,000 into a pot of 7,200,000. Foxen stared back and forth between the board and his opponent while using a time bank extension and then opted for a raise to 20,000,000 to force out Boivin instantly.
