Matt Hansen

Level 13 : Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante

Kristen Foxen is nursing a short stack. She started the orbit with 62,000.

Big Blind: A player in the cutoff raised to 8,000 and Foxen called. The flop was 4?4?8? and Foxen check-folded to a continuation bet of 10,000.

Small Blind: Foxen folded to a raise.

Button: Foxen folded to a raise.

Cutoff: Foxen shoved 53,000. The rest of the table got out of the way and she took the small pot.

Late Position: Folded to a bet of 9,000 from Adam Hendrix.

Early Position: Folded to a raise.

Under-the-Gun: Folded to a raise.

Big Blind: Adam Hendrix raised to 8,000 from the button and a player in the small blind called before Foxen came along from the big blind. All three players checked the flop of 7?5?2? and the turn was 6?. The small blind checked and Foxen bet 9,000. Hendrix called and the small blind raised to 35,000. Foxen and Hendrix gave it up.

Foxen ended the orbit with 42,000, good for just over ten big blinds.
