Haxton checked once more and Peters quickly announced ‘all-in’ to send Haxton deep into the tank. He burns through a time bank chip (Haxton now has two remaining) and chews through nearly the full 30-seconds of extra time before grudgingly folding leaving Peters to scoop the pot and further extend his lead.
