Haxton Turns a Straight to Double Up Through Cheng

Level 13 : 1,000/2,000, 300 ante

Isaac Haxton defended his big blind from Cheng's open, and Altergott's call on the button and saw a flop of {2-Spades}{Q-Diamonds}{10-Spades}. Haxton checked and Cheng bet out 8,000, and both other players called.

The turn brought the {8-Hearts} and Haxton, after thinking for a short moment, moved all-in for his last 25 big blinds. Cheng called, whilst Altergott folded.

Haxton: {J-Hearts}{9-Clubs}
Cheng: {A-Diamonds}{Q-Hearts}

Haxton had turned a straight and Cheng was drawing dead. The dealer dealt the inconsequential card and Haxton doubled up to over 100,000.
