Isaac Haxton Plays His Queens Slow

Sep 23, 2011

WPT Malta Day 3
We join the action on a flop of [Js] [7h] [2c] and Mark Norman (under the gun) is in the hand with Isaac Haxton [early position]. Norman cheeks to his opponent who checks back and we see a turn of [5h]. Once again Norman checks as does Haxton. The river is the [7c] and Norman checks a third time and Haxton goes into thought mode. Each time he riffles a chip Norman motions to move all-in. In the end Haxton places a bet of 32,500 over the line.

"I think you have probably gotten me beat but I call," says Norman.

Haxton: [Qh] [Qs]

"I had tens," says Norman.

Norman ~ 62,000
Haxton ~ 340,000
