Kornuth Folds Out Foxen

Level 5 : Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante

Chance Kornuth raised to 4,200 from under the gun, which Yang Wang called in the hijack, tempting Alex Foxen along in the big blind too.

After Foxen checked on the 1049 flop, Kornuth continued for 9,000, which both Wang and Foxen called before the action checked through on the 9 turn.

Foxen saw the turn passivity as a green light to take over the betting lead, putting 32,000 into the middle. Kornuth responded with a raise to 85,000, which saw Wang fold, and Foxen quickly did the same.
