Schindler Clips Haxton

Level 11 : 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante

Isaac Haxton opened to 12,000 and Jake Schindler three-bet next to act in the cutoff to 27,000.

Haxton called, and checked the {6-Spades}{3-Hearts}{8-Hearts} flop as Schindler bet 16,000. Haxton called, and then both players checked down the {3-Spades} and {K-Diamonds} on the turn and river.

Haxton revealed his {10-Clubs}{7-Clubs}, but it would be Schindler's {A-Hearts}{J-Diamonds} that would see him collect the pot.
