Isaac Haxton topped a star-studded field of 49 entries to win more than $1 million in the $100,000 buy-in PokerStars Caribbean Adventure High Roller on Wednesday. Haxton made a three-way deal with fellow top pros Seth Davies and Adrian Mateos which saw all three players add a million dollars to their lifetime tournament earnings, while Haxton won the final battle for the trophy.
1st Isaac Haxton — $1,082,230
2nd Seth Davies — $1,078,347
3rd Adrian Mateos — $1,095,903

Haxton, who now boasts more than $32 million in live tournament earnings, is no stranger to success at the PCA. He finished runner-up in the 2007 World Poker Tour PCA Main Event for $861,789, and won two other side events in 2016 and 2017.
This is the fifth time Haxton has banked seven figures in a live tournament. According to his Hendon Mob profile, his top four scores are:
1st in the 2018 PokerGO Super High Roller Bowl for $3,672,000
2nd in the 2014 Aussie Millions $250,000 Challenge for $2,525,841
5th in the 2013 GuangDong Asia Millions for $1,313,879

Mateos, a four-time WSOP bracelet winner, also cracked $30 million in live tournament earnings with the chop.
