Isaac Haxton: 'I'm One of the Few Who Will Play with Anyone'


Isaac Haxton, known as "philivey2694/luvtheWNBA", played two matches against Viktor Blom in the SuperStar Showdown. In December 2010, Isaac Haxton won $41,701 in a $50/100 limit game. Haxton won $99,886 against Viktor Blom in a $100/200 game due to internet issues. Haxton led by nearly $80,000 but ended with a smaller lead of +$5,093 in a subsequent match.

Haxton mentioned that he respects Izildur's game but believes he has an advantage over him. Haxton considers jungleman12, Sauce123, and Kanu7 as some of the toughest opponents. Haxton discussed the issue of bumhunting, particularly in heads-up games. Haxton mentioned that he is one of the few top players who is willing to play with anyone.

Haxton started playing poker seriously in 2004 with two $50 deposits on UB. Haxton began his poker career with limit hold'em at $0.25/0.50. Haxton's parents supported him throughout his poker career. Haxton mentioned that he has significant amounts of money stuck on FTP and UB due to Black Friday. Haxton and his wife currently live on Malta but plan to return to the USA when the situation improves. Haxton has over $4 million in tournament winnings, including notable achievements like second place in the PCA main event.

I've spent years at the tables — cash and tournaments — and just as long shaping poker copy behind the scenes: room reviews, bonus fine print, tournament notes. At PokerInsider I write the way I wish more sites would: clear structure, honest trade-offs, no hype. Whether you're new or already grinding, I care about what the offer actually costs you — rake, variance, and the fine print — and I treat responsible play as part of the job, not a footnote.
