Boxell Scores a Double-up

Leo Boxell has just doubled through to 2.3 million in chips after getting the best of Andrew Hiscox in what was a battle of the blinds.

Action folded around the table to Hiscox in the small blind who completed the bet. Boxell then kicked it up to 225,000 and Hiscox four-bet to 555,000. The action then returned to Boxell who moved all in over the top for approximately 610,000 more, putting Hiscox to a big decision.

"If he folds I'm going to cry. Seriously, I'm going to cry," said Tom Grigg.

Hiscox ended up making the call holding {A-Diamonds}{8-Clubs} and found himself in bad shape against Boxell's {A-Spades}{10-Spades}.

The {8-Hearts} was the door card on the flop, but it was accompanied by the {10-Clubs} and {9-Diamonds} pairing both players' kickers. The turn and river then blanked out {3-Clubs}, {Q-Hearts} and Boxell won the pot with a pair of tens.

Hiscox was left with 725,000 in chips after the hand.
