Foxen Shoves on Yotsushika; Back Comes Winter?

Level 18 : 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante

In a limped pot, Kazuhiko Yotsushika bet 100,000 from the big blind and Alex Foxen raised all in for 540,000 from the button. Yotsushika used a time extension but eventually folded.

On the next hand Timothy Adams opened to 115,000 from under the gun and Sean Winter defended his big blind.

The pair checked down a {8-Spades}{q-Diamonds}{j-Clubs}{9-Spades}{j-Hearts} board and Winter took down a small but meaningful pot with {5-Clubs}{5-Spades}
