Haxton Picks His Spot
Level 26
: Blinds 150,000/300,000, 300,000 ante
Isaac Haxton raised to 1,050,000 from under the gun, leaving himself 100,000 behind, before Elias Harala reraised to 2,550,000 in the cutoff. Ian Matakis took his full 30 seconds in the big blind before folding, while Haxton also took 30 seconds before he threw in his last chips.
Isaac Haxton: J♥10♥6♠5♠
Elias Harala: K♦10♠9♦8♠
"Not ideal," Haxton said upon seeing Harala's hand. The board, though, came 5♥8♣7♣9♣10♣ and Haxton made a straight to double up.
