Foxen Back Down as Nguyen Pulls Off Big Bluff

Level 20 : Blinds 100,000/200,000, 200,000 ante
Christopher Nguyen
Christopher Nguyen

Christopher Nguyen was in middle position and raised to 400,000 with AJ. It folded to Alex Foxen in the small blind, who wagered a quarter of his stack with his three-bet to 1,100,000, holding A2.

Nguyen decided to call, after which the 8510 flop was fanned. Foxen did not go for a continuation-bet, checking it over to Nguyen instead. Nguyen checked back, and the K turn emerged from the deck.

Foxen barreled 1,040,000 into the pot. Nguyen matched the bet, seeing the 2 river complete the board afterward. Foxen reverted to a check, but Nguyen turned his hand into a bluff and announced a bet of 1,500,000.

Foxen considered his options for a good while, burning through all his time banks while going over the hand in his head. Eventually, he folded his bottom pair as Nguyen got his massive bluff through.
