Alex Foxen - 4th Place

Alex Foxen moved all in for 880,000 from the button and Ryan Riess looked him up from the big blind.

Riess: {a-Hearts}{9-Hearts}
Foxen: {a-Clubs}{8-Clubs}

The {a-Spades}{6-Spades}{3-Diamonds} flop paired both players but Riess' kicker had him out in front. The {2-Hearts} turn meant there would be no chop, and the {j-Clubs} river sealed Foxen's finish in fourth place.

Foxen Flips for Tournament Life

Level 22 : 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante

Alex Foxen moved all in for 520,000 under the gun and Ryan Riess isolated by jamming from the small blind.

Riess: {k-Spades}{j-Spades}
Foxen: {8-Hearts}{8-Clubs}

The {7-Spades}{3-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds} flop was safe for Foxen but the {4-Spades} turn did give Riess a flush draw. Fortunately for Foxen, the {7-Hearts} paired the board and he shipped the double.
