Foxen Reclaims His Lead
Level 17
: Blinds 1,500/3,000, 0 ante
Alex Foxen raised to 6,500 on the button and Phil Ivey called from the big blind. The flop came Q♥8♣2♣ and Ivey check-called a bet of 4,000 from Foxen.
The turn brought the 4♠ and Ivey checked again. Foxen sized up with a bet of 28,000 and Ivey called to see the 4♣ on the river. Ivey checked for the third time and Foxen splashed in a bet of 78,000. Ivey used some time banks to deliberate but decided to lay his hand down.
