After firing six bullets in the $100,000 Challenge and two bullets in this event, Isaac Haxton will need to finish fourth or better to show a profit on the trip. He just took a big step in that direction, winning a two-million chip pot off of Tom "durrrr" Dwan.

Dwan was second to act and opened for a raise to 55,000. Haxton three-bet to 165,000 on the button, Phil Ivey and Jason Mercier folded in the blinds, and Dwan tank-called. The flop fell {4-Hearts}{4-Diamonds}{6-Clubs}, Dwan checked, and Haxton continued for 130,000. Dwan check-raised, making it 350,000 to go, and Haxton called.

The turn was the {6-Diamonds}, Dwan tanked for a bit, and then he moved all in for effectively 756,000. Haxton called quickly.

Dwan: {9-Diamonds}{9-Spades}
Haxton: {k-Clubs}{k-Diamonds}

Over 2.5 million chips were in the pot with only one card to come, and only two cards in the deck would eliminate the Team PokerStars Online member. The {j-Clubs} was not one of them, and Haxton was awarded a massive pot.

Dwan plummeted to 517,000.

Hand Analysis

This key hand in which Haxton and Dwan both held pocket pairs illustrates both how to maximize value with a big hand as well as how detrimental it can be to turn a strong hand into what is essentially a bluff.
