Haxton Overbet Shoves

Level 1 : 500/1,000, 1,000 ante
Isaac Haxton
Isaac Haxton

Isaac Haxton thought for awhile and then checked after his time was up on a board of {k-Clubs}{3-Clubs}{3-Spades}{a-Clubs}, sliding the dealer a time extension in the process. Koray Aldemir immediately checked back from the button. On the {2-Clubs} river, Haxton thought about 30 seconds and announced he was all in, putting Aldemir at risk for about three-times the 85,000 pot. Aldemir double-checked his holding and then quickly folded.

Aldemir - 258,000
Haxton - 455,000

Schillhabel Bets Out Schindler

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

Jake Schindler opens to 2,500 from under the gun and both Stefan Schillhabel and Brian Rast call from the button and big blind respectively.

The flop falls {Q-Hearts}{5-Hearts}{5-Spades} and the action checks to Schillhabel who opts to bet 3,500. Rast folds, but Schindler calls as the {9-Clubs} lands on the turn.

Schindler checks and Schillhabel fires out again; this time amounting to 13,500.

Schindler thinks for a little, but then folds his hand as he drops to 295,000 and Schillhabel moves to 290,000 in chips.
