Phua and Foxen Heading in Opposite Directions
Alex Foxen raised it up to 65,000 on the button and James Chen three-bet to 250,000 in the small blind. Foxen called and the flop came 
. Chen led out for 225,000 and Foxen called to see the 
on the turn. Chen fired out another 800,000 and Foxen quickly folded.
A couple of hands later, Foxen raised to 60,000 from under the gun and Paul Phua called from the small blind. The flop fell 
and Phua check-called a bet of 40,000 from Foxen.
The turn was the 
and both players checked to the 
on the river. Phua led out for 150,000 and Foxen looked him up. Phua tabled 
and Foxen dumped his cards in the muck.
Moments earlier, Phua was seen raking in a massive pot after what appeared to be a double up through Adrian Mateos, leaving the Spaniard on the shortest stack in the room.
