Haxton Busts Two to Take Top Spot

Level 11 : 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante

From across the room, we saw both Ben Tollerene and Barry Woods leaving the table while a mountain of chips was being pushed towards Isaac Haxton.

The dealer informed us that all the money was piled in preflop with Haxton holding the {10-Clubs}{10-Diamonds} against Tollerene's {a-}{q-} and Woods' {a-}{k-}. Haxton's pair held through a {9-Diamonds}{j-Clubs}{5-Clubs}{9-Clubs}{j-Spades} board knocking out both of his opponents and leaping into the chip lead.
