Level 4
: Blinds 2,500/5,000, 5,000 ante
![Kristen Foxen](https://s.pnimg.net/H-JbO2fo8tvKSmpDk4wXj88fRGI_ERGSa0q9LNf-UsM/pr:reporting-leading-desktop/aHR0cHM6Ly9wbmlt/Zy5uZXQvbHJlcC8y/MTE4LzkzL3g4MzEz/NzBiN2NhLmpwZw.webp)
Action was picked up on the flop with the board showing 9♦8♦6♦ and about 150,000 already in the pot. Kristen Foxen bet 45,000 and called when Yang Wang raised to 90,000.
Both players checked the 4♥ turn. On the Q♣ river Foxen checked again and Wang moved all in with a covering stack.
Foxen thought about her decision for about 30 seconds before making the call.
Wang showed A♥7♥ for a missed straight draw turned river bluff while Foxen showed K♣9♠ for just second pair which was enough to take down a huge pot and secure a full double up.
"Better than watching on tv," Sam Snead, who was also at the table said. "That was amazing."
