When Isaac Haxton '08 was a freshman, he spent winter break outside his native Syracuse, N.Y., playing poker at the Turning Stone Resort and Casino. He came away with a respectable $1,500. This year, Haxton spent part of the winter playing poker in the Bahamas, and this time, he finished $861,789 richer.
A member of Alpha Epsilon Pi, Haxton won the whopping sum when he placed second in the Poker Stars Caribbean Adventure at the Atlantis Resort and Casino in early January. He said his lifetime poker earnings now amount to approximately $1.3 million.
