Alex Foxen Knocks Out One

Level 7 : 250/500, 75 ante

In the previous level, Alex Foxen had raised to 800 from the under-the-gun position. The player on the button shoved all in and Foxen ended up calling for 3,600 in total.

Foxen had {K-Hearts}{9-Hearts} and his opponent {A-Diamonds}{Q-Spades}. The board ran out {9-Diamonds}{Q-Diamonds}{9-Clubs}{A-Clubs}{2-Spades}, meaning the player on the button hit two pair, aces and queens, but Foxen had him beat with trip nines.

"How come you can hit them with king-nine?" the player on Foxen's right. Foxen just laughed a bit and chatted away.

The player that was just eliminated was pretty mad when he walked away and said Foxen should have never called it, but Foxen continued chatting and didn't hear him.
