![](https://storage.googleapis.com/pokercentral/Alex-Foxen2019-US-Poker-Open_AmatoDSC_8345-1024x681.jpg)
We caught the action on the flop with the community cards showing [JhKd7s]. Alex Foxen bet 15,000 and then called when Cary Katz raised to 49,500.
The turn was the [Ah] which turned out to be a sick card. Foxen checked and Katz followed suit. The river was the [6d]. Foxen bet 118,500. Katz, sensing he was in trouble, used a time extension chip and said, “that’s a sick card,” pointing to the ace. He eventually made the call and found out the bad news. He was correct that ace was a “sick card.”
Foxen showed [AdAs]. He got there on the turn to crack top two pair. Katz held [KxJx].
