Catching Up with the Foxens
Over in the Horseshoe ballroom, Kristen Foxen and Alex Foxen are battling it out on Day 1c of the Main Event. In the blue section, Kristen is being forced to grind a short stack after a rough start to the day. However, just recently, she raised to 1,000 in early position and Hang Xu defended from the big blind.
The flop came A♠A♦8♥ and Xu check-called a bet of 600 from Foxen. The turn was the 6♠ and both players checked to the 5♣ on the river. Xu checked again and Foxen threw in a bet of 3,000. Xu called and Foxen turned over A♣10♦ to scoop the pot.
Across the aisle, Alex is having a much more pleasant day thus far as he has continued to stack chips ever since sitting down. James Crowshaw opened to 1,000 in early position and picked up two callers before Foxen made it 4,500 in the cutoff. Crowshaw called and a third player tagged along as well.
The flop fell 10♦5♣3♦ and the action checked to Foxen who continued with a bet of 5,300. Crowshaw called and the other player folded. The turn was the 5♥ and Crowshaw check-called another bet of 14,000 from Foxen. The 2♦ completed the board and Crowshaw checked once more. Foxen announced all in as the bigger stack and Crowshaw instantly folded.
