Shakerchi Takes Control from the Big Blind
Level 2
: Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante
Phil Ivey opened to 13,000 from under the gun and picked up four callers along the way, including Isaac Haxton on his left. Talal Shakerchi three-bet to 131,000 from the big blind and only Haxton stuck around to see a flop.
The flop came 10♠7♣2♥ and Shakerchi led out with a bet of 56,000. Haxton called and the 6♦ rolled off on the turn. Shakerchi threw in another bet of 155,000 and Haxton finally dispatched his cards.
