Michael Borovetz is sitting behind a very large stack right now, with plenty of those chips coming courtesy of Isaac Haxton. A recent hand between those two started when Borovetz opened to 9,000. Haxton was on his direct left and after quite some time, three-bet to 27,000. With the rest of the table out of the way, Borovetz called and the dealer readied three cards.
On the 
flop, both players checked, just as the did on the turn (
) and the river (
). When Borovetz tabled 
for a rivered broadway straight perhaps it was a missed opportunity to grab more of Haxton's chips.

and Michael Borovetz was first to act. He opted to check and Haxton sent a bet of 11,000 onto the felt. There was already over 20,000 in the pot and after some though, Borevetz let the hand go and sent the pot to Haxton. A great day so far for Haxton has seen his stack increase by a huge amount after bagging up quite a small stack last night.
