: 1,000/2,000, 300 ante
Team PokerStars Pro Isaac Haxton is off to a fast start here today.
He made it 6,000 on the button and after getting a call from Mikalai Vaskaboinikau in the small blind, Haxton sat up and looked across the table at his stack. Vaskaboinikau checked the 
flop and folded when Haxton continued for 8,000.
Ever the active one, Haxton called a Vaskaboinikau raise a few hands later.
"I know it's jacks or better," Haxton said. "But I'm going to try to catch up anyway."
Apparently he didn't, because Haxton folded to a continuation bet on the flop, taking some 150,000 in chips with him on to the next hand.
