Alex Foxen opened to 125,000 from the button and Jason Koon raised to 400,000 from the big blind. Foxen put Koon all in, effectively betting 1,650,000 and Koon called.

Koon: AcKh
Foxen: AdQd

The 2016 Seminole Hard Rock Poker Open champion was ahead for the big double and hit the KcTd5s flop. Foxen had a Broadway gutshot that filled on the Jd turn. Koon was left with three chop outs to stay alive but the Tc river sent him out in third place.

Alex Foxen – 5,500,000 (110 bb)
