Haxton Finds a Double

Level 9 : 600/1,200, 0 ante

Imad Derwiche limped in, as did Maksim Shuts, and Vladimir Troyanovskiy raised to 6,000. Only Derwiche called and the flop came {J-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds}{2-Spades}. Derwiche check-called a bet worth 6,000 before the {J-Hearts} on the turn provided a second pair on the board. Derwiche now bet 15,000 and Troyanovskiy folded.

Over on table two, Isaac Haxton raised the button and called the three-bet to 10,500 by Kenneth Wong. On the {Q-Clubs}{J-Clubs}{5-Clubs} flop, Wong bet 3,200 to put Haxton all in for the remaining stack, and Haxton quickly called.

Isaac Haxton: {Q-Hearts}{6-Clubs}{4-Clubs}{2-Clubs}
Kenneth Wong: {A-Hearts}{A-Spades}{7-Diamonds}{7-Spades}.

While Haxton had flopped the flush, the {J-Hearts} on the turn made things interesting again as Wong picked up four outs for a full house. A blank {3-Clubs} river failed to improve him and Haxton doubled.
