Mixson Wins Huge Pot Without Showdown

Ryan Lashmar

Level 4 : Blinds 300/500, 500 ante

A player in the hijack opened to 1,200 and was called by a player in the cutoff before Cameron Mixson three-bet to 4,500 from the button. The hijack called before the cutoff four-bet to 20,000. Both Mixson and the hijack called creating a pot worth just over 60,000 going to the flop.

On the 8♣7♥2♦ flop action checked around to Mixson who shoved for a bit over 60,000. The hijack quickly folded and after taking a couple minutes to consider his options the cutoff folded as well.

Mixson revealed he had J♥J♠ for an overpair before dragging in the massive pot without showdown.

Level 4 : Blinds 300/500, 500 ante

Picking up the action on the river, Matthew Lambrecht in the cutoff was involved in a hand with Brian Landon in late position.

With the board reading A♦3♣6♠3♦Q♥ Landon bet 6,000. Lambrecht responded with a raise to 20,500. That sent Landon into the tank as he considered a call. Eventually, he did put in the additional chips, though quickly regretted it as Lambrecht turned over A♥Q♠, beating Landon's A♣K♦ to the pot.

Level 4 : Blinds 300/500, 500 ante

The action was caught as the pot stood at approximately 6,000 with two players looking at a full board of 5♣Q♣8♣K♣J♣.

The big blind checked and Isaac Haxton, in the cutoff, bet a sizeable wager of 9,600, sending the big blind into the tank.

The big blind verbalised their thought process as they tanked, implying they knew he was either way ahead or way behind, eventually deciding to fold. The big blind mucked the 6♣ face up, conceding the pot to Haxton.

Haxton rechecked his cards and then tabled the 10♣, showing the big blind that they were beaten.
