Leng Doubles Through Haxton
Level 19
: 6,000/12,000, 2,000 ante
Haxton opened the action with a min-raise from under-the-gun and a short-stacked Cheong Cheok Leng moved all-in for 122,000 from the button.
Haxton asked for a count and made the call and while Leng found himself at-risk for his tournament life he had the best of at with a dominating hand when the cards were revealed.
Cheong Cheok Leng:
Isaac Haxton:
The flop was one Haxton liked, but the turn and the river saw Leng lock up the double and climb to 274,000 while Haxton dropped some to 421,000.
