Haxton Doubles Through Greenberg

Level 6 : 1,500/2,500, 2,500 ante

Fresh off his short-deck win, Isaac Haxton hopped into the $25K and got a double in the first big pot we saw him play. He got in a raising war with Larry Greenberg and wound up all in with {a-Hearts}{k-Hearts} against {q-Spades}{q-Diamonds}. The {10-Spades}{j-Diamonds}{2-Hearts} flop meant a queen was no longer good for Greenberg, and he was the one who needed help after the {k-Diamonds} turned. A {q-Clubs} river gave Haxton the nuts, and Greenberg shipped over 164,000.
