Haxton Drills the Nuts on the River

Level 2 : Blinds 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante

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 73K 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 K6 after making a flush on the river, and Tollerene was heading to the exits after showing 72.

He Should've Called Gryko

Richard Gryko raised in late position and Ed Miller three-bet to 11,000 behind him. Gryko four-bet to 28,000 and Miller five-bet jammed a stack of just over 100,000. Gryko called with slightly less.

Richard Gryko: AA All in
Ed Miller: KK

Gryko was in a perfect situation until the flop landed K73 to give Miller a set. The board then finished out 57 as Gryko was sent to the rail in brutal fashion.
