Haxton Adds Some Chips

Level 16 : 700,000/1,400,000, 200,000 ante

Zheng Tang limped under the gun and the action folded around to Isaac Haxton in the big blind. Haxton moved all in for less than 10 million and managed to get a fold from Tang.

Igor Kurganov Eliminated in 6th Place (HK$8,300,000)

Level 16 : 700,000/1,400,000, 200,000 ante
Igor Kurganov - 6th place
Igor Kurganov - 6th place

Igor Kurganov has just brutally finished in 6th place, while short stack Isaac Haxton has managed a pay jump.

Kurganov's stack went to Zhang Teng when the two players got their chips in preflop with Kurganov holding {a-Clubs}{10-Clubs} against the {a-Diamonds}{8-Hearts} of Teng. Despite finding a safe a {2-Spades}{a-Spades}{q-Spades}{7-Hearts} board to the turn, the {8-Spades} river gave Teng two-pair and with that Kurganov was sent home in 6th place, collecting HK$8,300,000 (US$1,070,967).

The next player eliminated will take home HK$10,200,000 (US$1,316,129).

Big Stacks Rumble

Level 16 : 700,000/1,400,000, 200,000 ante

Igor Kurganov shoved the cut off for 33.8 million and Jeff Rossiter called off his last 28.05 million on the button. The short stack Isaac Haxton watched on with glee as the two big stacks turned their cards over.

Rossiter: {10-Spades}{10-Diamonds}
Kurganov: {q-Spades}{8-Clubs}

Rossiter was at risk, but had the better hand and it stayed that way as a {a-Spades}{5-Diamonds}{6-Clubs}{k-Clubs}{8-Diamonds} board was spread on the felt. Kurganov is now a short stack along with Haxton, while Rossiter is well and truly the chip leader.

Quick Double for Ike

Level 16 : 700,000/1,400,000, 200,000 ante

Isaac Haxton, crippled just a few moments ago, moved all in for 1,075,000 from the button. The small blind folded and it was on to Kurganov in the big blind, who already had enough in the middle to put Haxton at risk.

Haxton: {8-Hearts}{6-Spades}
Kurganov: {10-Clubs}{4-Diamonds}

The board ran out {k-Hearts}{4-Spades}{5-Clubs}{9-Spades}{6-Diamonds}, with Haxton hitting a lucky river to make the much-needed double up.

Haxton Crippled

Level 16 : 700,000/1,400,000, 200,000 ante

Folded to Niklas Heinecker on the button and he would move all in for 8,575,000. Isac Haxton crunched the numbers from the small blind, taking his time before moving all in for around 9.5 million.

Haxton: {10-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}
Heinecker: {a-Clubs}{5-Spades}

Heinecker was going to need some help to stay alive and while he didn’t receive any help up to the turn of a {q-Diamonds}{2-Hearts}{q-Clubs}{j-Diamonds} board, the {a-Diamonds} river would give him a double up and leave Haxton extremely crippled with just around one big blind.
