Haxton Finds Kings to Double
Level 8
: 2,500/5,000, 500 ante
Jean-Noel Thorel raised to 10,000 and Isaac Haxton three-bet to 37,000 out of the small blind. Thorel moved all in and Haxton called. Both players turned over pocket pairs and Thorel immediately sighed, as he had the worse hand in showdown.
Isaac Haxton: 
Jean-Noel Thorel: 
The board came 
and Haxton doubled up with a flush for 225,000 to take a decent chunk of Thorel's stack.
