Koon Traps Haxton
Level 4
: Blinds 1,000/2,500, 0 ante
Isaac Haxton opened to 5,000 in the cutoff and Jason Koon defended in the big blind as the two discussed a possible skiing trip.
Koon checked on the flop of 7♣J♠2♣ and Haxton checked back. Koon checked again on the 3♦ turn and Haxton bet 3,500. Koon check-raised to 13,000 and Haxton came back over the top by moving all in. Koon called with a bigger stack.
Isaac Haxton: 9♥9♦
Jason Koon: Q♠J♣
Koon had set the trap with top pair and the 3♠ river bricked off to confirm Haxton's elimination.
