Alex Foxen raised to 300 on the button and Kane Kalas three-bet to 975 out of the big blind. Foxen four-bet to 2,675 and Kalas called.

Both players checked a flop of KsTc7c and the Ah came on the turn. Kalas checked again and Foxen bet 2,475. Kalas called and the river was the Jh.

Both players checked and then showed big hands. Foxen showed AcKc, good for top two pair and a missed flush draw, but Kalas dragged the pot with 7h7s.

“I was considering an all in on the turn,” said Kalas. “But I wanted to let you keep bluffing.”

Kalas takes the pot and the chip lead, but trails 1-0 to Foxen in the series.

Kane Kalas – 17,000
Alex Foxen – 7,000
