Luc Greenwood Falls to Isaac Haxton in Monster Pot
Level 10
: 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante
As we arrived, the action was already on the turn. Later, we learned the pre flop and flop action.
Action folded to Luc Greenwood on the button and he opened. Big blind Isaac Haxton 3-bet and Greenwood called.
The flop came 
and Haxton bet 65,000. Greenwood called.
As the 
hit the turn, Haxton took his time and checked with just 2 seconds left on the clock. Greenwood used 15 seconds before betting 70,000 with 147,000 behind. Haxton again needed some time and eventually moved in. Greenwood wasn't too happy but did call rather quickly by tossing in a single 5,000-chip.
Haxton frowned, seemingly not happy he was called but he got good news even before showing his hand as Greenwood said "You're good."
Isaac Haxton: 
Luc Greenwood: 
The river 
did nothing for either and Haxton took down the big pot with nothing but the pair of threes on board and ace-king-jack high.

Badziakouski Busts to Haxton
Level 10
: 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante
On the button, Mikita Badziakouski moved all in and Isaac Haxton asked for a count. "95,000," Badziakouski quickly replied and the dealer counted the same amount. Haxton gave it brief consideration and moved all in from the small blind as well to isolate.
Mikita Badziakouski: 
Isaac Haxton:
"The seven is coming, I can feel it," Badziakouski grinned and Haxton replied "it probably is."
The 
flop gave Haxton middle pair and Badziakouski said "that is even better." Some outs were gone by the 
turn, and the 
river was a blank to send Badziakouski to the rail.

Kenney Back on Track After Busting Hajiyev
Level 10
: 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante
Bryn Kenney raised and Ramin Hayijev three-bet shoved from one seat over for what appeared to be 140,000. Kenney called and the cards were tabled.
Ramin Hajiyev: 
Bryn Kenney:
The 
flop left Hajiyev in desperate shape and he was drawing dead on the turn, making the river a formality. Fellow Azerbaijani high roller regular Murad Akhundov followed him to the rail, and Igor Kurganov as well as Martin Jacobson also ran out of chips.
