Haxton Doubles Through McDonald
Level 16
: 40,000/80,000, 10,000 ante
Isaac Haxton open-shipped under the gun for approximately 1.8 million and action folded to Mike McDonald in the big blind. "Timex" asked for a count, thought for about 45 seconds, and the made the call.
McDonald: 
Haxton: 
Haxton was at risk and in need of some help. The 
flop wasn't helpful, but the 
turn was. Haxton paired his lady to take a commanding lead in the hand. McDonald needed to catch an ace on the river to dispatch his foe, but it wasn't in the cards as the 
blanked. Ship the double to Haxton.
