Haxton Drills the Nuts on the River
With the small blind Ben Tollerene forced all in, Alex Foxen raised to 3,500 from middle position, and was called by the big blind Isaac Haxton.
After the 7♦3♦K♣ flop, Haxton check-called a bet of 3,000 from Foxen.
The turn brought the 10♥, and Haxton again check-called a bet from Foxen, this time for 19,000.
Once the A♦ came on the river, Haxton checked to Foxen for a third time. Foxen bet once more, sizing up to 54,000.
Haxton took some time, before raising to roughly 210,000, leaving just 500 behind. Foxen wasted little time to fold his hand and give the sizable side pot to Haxton.
For the much smaller main pot, Haxton turned over the nuts with K♦6♦ after making a flush on the river, and Tollerene was heading to the exits after showing 7♣2♦.
