Haxton Knocks Out Two; Assumes Chip Lead
Level 17
: 3,250/6,500, 800 ante
Shawn Daniels opened to 13,000 first to act and action folded around to a short-stacked "MarathonOG", who went all-in for their 31,128 from the small blind. Isaac Haxton used up some of his timebank in the big blind and re-raised to 49,256. Daniels responded by shoving for 584,276. Haxton had him covered and made the call.
Haxton: 
Daniels: 
"MarathonOG": 
All three players held an ace, with Daniels in the lead (having both his opponents dominated).
The 
flop put "MarathonOG" in the lead with a pair of tens, but the 
turn gave Haxton outs to a flush.
The river completed the board with a 
in dramatic fashion �� giving Haxton the flush and awarding him the enormous pot.
Haxton is our new tournament chip leader.
