Polk Contends for the Chip Lead

Level 10 : 2,500/5,000, 5,000 ante

Doug Polk and Isaac Haxton got involved in one of the biggest pots of the day. It appeared as though all the money got in the middle preflop. Polk was the one at risk for 322,000 but was in a great spot to double up.

Polk: {k-Diamonds}{k-Clubs}
Haxton: {9-Diamonds}{9-Clubs}

The board ran out {k-Spades}{10-Diamonds}{8-Hearts}{8-Diamonds}{a-Hearts} and Polk made a full house. Haxton was left with under 100,000 and Polk vaulted to the top of the leaderboard.
