Green Five-Bet Jams Pre
Level 11
: 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante
Jake Schindler opened on the button to 15,000 starting a hefty raising war. Brian Green three-bet in the small blind making it 40,000 to go only to see Antonio Esfandiari four-bet to 81,000 out of the big blind. Schindler quickly released and Green took no time five-bet jamming all in, getting Esfandiari to lay it down.

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 
against Tollerene's 
and Woods' 
. Haxton's pair held through a 
board knocking out both of his opponents and leaping into the chip lead.
