Haxton Has Everything

Level 4 : 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante

Ryan Riess opened to 4,000 from under the gun and Isaac Haxton three-bet to 12,500 on the button. The blinds folded and Riess made the call as the dealer spread the flop of {a-Hearts}{9-Clubs}{9-Diamonds}.

Both players checked to the {9-Spades} on the turn and the {a-Diamonds} on the river. That is when all of the action unfolded. Riess led out for a bet of 32,000 with a full house on the board. Haxton's time was about to run out and he pushed all in for around 116,000. Riess scratched his head and then made the call. Haxton tabled {a-Clubs}{9-Hearts} for quad nines and Riess flashed the {a-Spades} before it hit the muck. When the chips were counted, Haxton barely had Riess covered and the former WSOP Champion left his seat.
