A number of bets were made before Antonio Esfandiari bumped it up to 280,000 preflop. Isaac Haxton wasn't done and jammed all in for a total of 668,500. Esfandiari required a timebank while he dwelled on his decision, eventually making a call to put Haxton at risk and create a monstrous pot.

Isaac Haxton: {a-Diamonds}{k-Spades}
Antonio Esfandiari: {j-Hearts}{j-Spades}

A huge race was underway as a {a-Spades}{8-Clubs}{10-Diamonds}{k-Hearts}{6-Clubs} board fanned out. Haxton spiked an ace on the flop and dragged in the pot giving him a huge chip lead.
