Alex Foxen opened to 20,000 from under the gun and called when Andrea Ricci three-bet to 70,000 from the cutoff.
Foxen check-called for 40,000 on the A♠7♠5♣ flop, bringing in the 9♦ turn. Foxen check-jammed over a bet of 140,000 and Ricci snap-called to set up a more than one million chip pot.
Alex Foxen: 7♥7♦
Andrea Ricci: A♦A♣
Both players flopped a set, but Ricci's superior three-of-a-kind left Foxen drawing to one out. The 5♥ river improved both players to a full house but it wasn't the card Foxen needed and he headed out of the tournament room while Ricci took the chip lead.
Boris Angelov, who was at the table, said Foxen started the hand with around 500,000 to 550,000, meaning Foxen's all-in was north of 400,000.
On the table behind, fellow high roller Viktor Blom also chipped down after dropping a pot. With around 210,000 in the middle on the 9♣5♥2♠7♣9♥ board, Eyal Bensimhon fired out 110,000 from the big blind. Blom used up a time bank before conceding the pot.
