Bicknell Whacks Foxen for a Big One

Level 1

Anthony Zinno limped in the from the hijack before Kristen Bicknell raised to 13,000 in the cutoff. Alex Foxen called in the small blind and Zinno folded, so Bicknell and Foxen were heads up.

The flop was {K-Diamonds}{10-Spades}{6-Spades} and both players checked to see the {8-Diamonds} on the turn. There, Foxen checked and Bicknell checked behind.

The river was the {Q-Diamonds} and Foxen led for 22,000. Bicknell thought about it for a bit, then raised, making it 60,000. Foxen took his turn in the tank but eventually called. Bicknell turned up her {A-Diamonds}{J-Hearts} for the nut straight.

"That's good," Foxen said taking one last look at his cards.

Bicknell raked in the pot and Foxen was left with just 26,000 chips.
