Haxton and Tilston Find Dubs

Level 7 : 2,000/3,000, 3,000 ante

Isaac Haxton got his stack of 100,000 in with {a-Clubs}{j-Clubs} against the {k-Spades}{q-Diamonds} of Ali Imsirovic.

"Gotta bust you so I can get the jacket," Imsirovic said with a smile, referencing his lead in the points standings for the Poker Masters Purple Jacket, with Haxton trailing but drawing live.

"Let's keep it interesting for awhile," Haxton responded.

So it would be as {6-Hearts}{8-Spades}{7-Spades}{j-Hearts}{6-Diamonds} brought nothing for Imsirovic.

At another table, Keith Tilston doubled through Dan Smith. We didn't see Smith's hand, but Tilston made trip kings with {a-}{k-}.
