Foxen Gives Up on the River

[user339872]

Nível 20 : Blinds 100,000/200,000, 200,000 ante

Alex Foxen raised to 450,000 on the button with K♥Q♣ and Jans Arends called from the big blind with A♥10♦. The flop came 9♣8♦5♣ and both players checked to the J♠ on the turn.

Arends checked again and Foxen took a stab at the pot with a bet of 800,000. Arends called and the 5♥ paired the board on the river. Arends checked one more time and Foxen gave up by checking it back. Arends showed ace-high and Foxen disgustingly threw his cards away.
