Alex Foxen opened from middle position, Michael Duek three-bet from the cutoff, Foxen put in a four-bet, and Duek called as around 60,000 found its way into the middle preflop.
On the Q♥8♣3♥ flop, Foxen led for 15,000 and Duek called.
Foxen led again on the 4♣ turn for 37,000, and Duek stuck around.
The K♥ peeled off on the river as Foxen burned through two time extensions before betting 114,800, leaving a single T-100 chip behind. Duek went deep into the tank, using a few extensions of his own, before ultimately deciding to fold.
Tablemate Chino Rheem implored Foxen to show a bluff, and he partially obliged, turning over the A♣.
