Chen Spikes the Turn to Stay Alive

Level 9 : 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante

Alex Foxen opened to 220,000 from the hijack and James Chen used up a time extension before shoving all in for 3,000,000 in the cutoff. The action folded back to Foxen who instantly called to put Chen at risk.

James Chen: {a-Hearts}{k-Clubs}
Alex Foxen: {10-Spades}{10-Diamonds}

It was a coin flip that saw Foxen hold the lead through the {j-Hearts}{7-Spades}{6-Diamonds} flop. However, the {k-Diamonds} on the turn paired Chen's king and the {8-Diamonds} was insignificant on the river. Chen got a full double up at the hands of the chip leader to level the playing field.
