Haxton Hacked In Half

Level 1 : 50/100, 0 ante

The flop was {6-Spades}{10-Spades}{a-Spades} and it was a confrontation of the blinds. Team PokerStars Pro Online Isaac Haxton was in the small blind and checked it over to his opponent Joeseph Chong in the big blind who bet 200. This was met by a check-raise to 675 from Haxton and his Chong threw in the call.

The turn card was the {4-Hearts} and Haxton continued the story with a bet of 1,300 which got another call. The river card {10-Clubs} saw Haxton make it 3,000 but he was met with a raise to 13,100 from Chong.

A flicker of surprise and frustration flashed across Haxton’s face as he shuffled some chips and studied the board. It wasn’t too long though before he shrugged and flicked out a chip to indicate a call. Chong turned over {10-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds} for a full house and Haxton’s cards went in the muck.

A first level setback for Haxton who had seen his stack cut in half by that hand and a healthy boost to Chong's hopes.
