Isaac Haxton

Dmitry Gromov was tangled up with Isaac Haxton, and it ended up costing him the rest of his chips.

On a turn board showing {10-Spades}

{10-Spades}

{8-Hearts}

{Q-Diamonds}

{9-Clubs}

, Haxton led out with a bet of 53,000. Gromov moved all in for 135,500, and Haxton snap-called. Gromov had {10-?}

{10-?}

{J-?}

for the straight, but Haxton's {J-Diamonds}

{J-Diamonds}

{K-Diamonds}

had made the nut straight. The river was a blank {5-Spades}

{5-Spades}

.

Gromov is out, and Haxton is now in the top five with 410,000.
