Haxton Building Momentum

Level 5 : 10,000/20,000, 3,000 ante

PokerStars Team Online Isaac Haxton has gone a bit of a roll lately, seeing his stack near 3 million in chips. A recent hand saw Haxton rumble with somewhat reigning champion Stanley Choi, who won GuangDong's last super high roller event they held in 2012.

The hand in question began with Haxton opening to 55,000 from middle position. Choi was in the cutoff and made the call. When the dealer flipped over a {a-Spades}{4-Diamonds}{7-Hearts} flop, Haxton checked and Choi bet 90,000. Haxton made the call and the dealer flipped over a {4-Hearts} turn. This time when Haxton checked Choi bet 125,000. Haxton made the call and a {5-Clubs} completed the board.

Both players decided to check the river and when Haxton quickly flipped over {a-Hearts}{k-Diamonds}, Choi's cards went into the muck and Haxton scooped up the handy little pot.
