Isaac Haxton Dominates 2023 with Super High Roller Bowl VIII Victory

In a year where Isaac Haxton keeps raising the bar with unprecedented achievements, he has once again outdone himself by clinching victory in the Super High Roller Bowl VIII, pocketing an impressive $2,760,000.

Haxton’s performance in 2023 has been nothing short of spectacular. He’s clinched seven tournament victories this year alone, with four of those coming from the PokerGO Tour. By April, he had already surpassed $5 million in yearly tournament earnings, and as of now, that number has soared to an astounding $12.9 million.

But it’s not just about the numbers; 2023 also saw Haxton winning his first-ever WSOP bracelet in $25,000 NL Hold’em High Roller event, further solidifying his place as one of poker’s greats.

Entering the final day of Super High Roller Bowl VIII, Haxton was in a commanding position with more than half the chips in play, but only four top places were being paid.
