Cooler Flop Eliminates Haxton
Level 5
: Blinds 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante
Paul Phua raised to 5,500 from under the gun, which was called by Isaac Haxton in the cutoff and Samuel Mullur in the big blind.
The flop came 8♣6♣5♠ and it was checked to Haxton who bet out 5,000. Then Mullur put in a raise to 18,00, which got Phua to fold, but Haxton three-bet to 50,000. Mullur put in the four bet to put Haxton all in for 160,000, who quickly made the call.
Isaac Haxton: 6♠6♦ 
Samuel Mullur: 9♥7♠
Haxton flopped a set, but Mullur flopped a straight. Needing the board to pair to avoid elimination, Haxton was unable to do so once the board ran out Q♠10♣ giving the pot to Mullur.
