Karakitukov Cracks Haxton's Aces
Level 6
: Blinds 400/800, 800 ante
Veselin Karakitukov raised from under the gun to 2,500, and on his direct left Isaac Haxton three-bet to 8,700. It folded back to Karakitukov who made the call.
The flop came Q♥K♥2♦ and Karakitukov checked to Haxton who moved all in for 8,400, which Karakitukov called.
Isaac Haxton: A♠A♥7♣6♦ 
Veselin Karakitukov: 10♠10♥9♠9♣
Haxton was in front with his aces, but the 9♦ on the turn gave Karakitukov a set. The river was the K♠ to give Karakitukov the pot with his full house, eliminating Haxton.
