The first against Noah Schwartz. Haxton opened with a raise to 85,000 from the hijack, and Schwartz called from the cutoff. Both checked the flop -- {6-Diamonds}

{6-Diamonds}

{8-Spades}

{9-Spades}

-- and turn -- {Q-Spades}

{Q-Spades}

. The river was the {3-Diamonds}

{3-Diamonds}

. Haxton bet 85,000, and Schwartz called. Haxton showed {10-Diamonds}

{10-Diamonds}

{8-Clubs}

for eights, and Schwartz mucked.

In the next one, Haxton opened to 85,000 again, this time from middle position, and got a caller in Vitaly Lunkin from the big blind. Once again the hand got checked to the river, at which point the board read {K-Diamonds}

{K-Diamonds}

{Q-Hearts}

{J-Spades}

{Q-Diamonds}

{6-Diamonds}

. Lunkin checked, Haxton bet 125,000, and Lunkin called. Haxton showed {K-Clubs}

{10-Hearts}

for kings and queens, and Lunkin mucked.
