Haxton's Turn to Double Up

Level 25
: Blinds 200,000/400,000, 400,000 ante

Darren Elias made it 1,300,000 in the small blind and Isaac Haxton shipped all in for 11,500,000 in the big blind. Elias never hesitated before making the call and the cards were face up.
Isaac Haxton: 8♥7♥
Darren Elias: A♦J♠
The flop fell K♦Q♥3♦ and Elias was still in the lead with his ace-high. However, the 7♣ on the turn gave Haxton the lone pair and the 3♣ on the river was no help to Elias who was sent back to the short stack.
