Haxton Puts Maximum Pressure On
Level 17
: Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante
Isaac Haxton raised to 55,000 under the gun, and next to act, Jesse Lonis called. The rest of the table folded, and the two went to a flop.
Haxton continued for 40,000 on the 9♠Q♠Q♣ flop, and Lonis called.
The turn brought the 9♦, and Haxton upped the ante, betting 180,000. Lonis stuck around, though, to see one more card.
The river A♥ didn't slow Haxton down, this time betting 600,000. This was enough to put Lonis all in and at risk of bubbling, should he call.
Lonis mucked his cards, advising that he had missed a straight draw and a flush draw.
