The Darkness and the Light

Sean Winter just joined the field and was seated to just to the right of Michael Rocco and staring across the table at Alex Foxen. A tough table in any field, just got a whole lot tougher for the other five players.

Winter moved his sunglasses to the top of his head and began rambling immediately. "There's only two guys that put me in an angry mood when I look at them," Winter started. "Jake Schindler and Foxen. I don't know why, those are the only two."

"Maybe it's the darkness from Jake and the light from Alex," Rocco replied. Everyone laughed as it was all in good fun.

A four-way limped pot proceeded to play out with a flop of A♦10♥9♥ hitting the felt. The action checked around to the Q♦ on the turn and Foxen took a stab at the pot with a bet of 1,200 from the big blind. Christos Argyriadis was the only player to call from the small blind and the J♠ landed on the river.

Argyriadis checked again and Foxen splashed in a bet of 3,000. Argyriadis thought for a few seconds and then dumped his cards into the muck.
