Katz Spikes, Then Chops

Level 7 : 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante

From the cutoff, Isaac Haxton opened to 7,000 only to have Cary Katz move all in for 36,000 from the button. Haxton called once the blinds folded, and the cards were tabled.

Haxton: {Q-Hearts}{Q-Spades}
Katz: {A-Spades}{Q-Diamonds}

The flop of {10-Spades}{K-Hearts}{A-Clubs} thrust Katz into the lead, but when the turn landed the {J-Hearts}, a chop would be the inevitable outcome as the {8-Spades} completed the board on the river.
