Thorel Leaves Haxton on Fumes
Nível 10
: Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante
Jean-Noel Thorel had won a large pot against Isaac Haxton to leave the latter short, who then three-bet jammed and flashed the 
.
The next button raise by Haxton was called by Thorel in the big blind. The duo headed to a 
flop on which Thorel check-called for 11,000. Another check-call on the 
turn then led to the 
river and Thorel checked once more.
Haxton double-fist bet 162,000 and Thorel called instantly to get shown the 
by Haxton. However, his kicker played as Thorel had the 
and was all smiles, exclaiming "eight" while pointing at the card.
That left Haxton with 4,000 and he called all-in after an open raise to 20,000 by Aleksejs Ponakovs.
Isaac Haxton: 
Aleksejs Ponakovs: 
The 
board increased Haxton's fumes five-fold for the moment.
