Showdown
Haxton:
Kitai:
The board would run out blanks all the way, coming . The paint card on the end was a bit of a heart-skipper for Kitai, but his ace high holds up, knocking off Isaac Haxton in 8th place. Haxton was certainly a player to watch here at this final table, but he was unable to get much going today, and he now finds himself on the outside looking in. He'll pocket more than $80,000 for his work over the past three days.
