Let's See How This Ends First

Chris Moneymaker stopped by Joe Hachem's table just after the dinner break and returned about 15 minutes ago. Looking over Hachem's middling stack he said, "Would you bust already? We need three people for a satellite!"

But it looks like Hachem will be hanging around this event just a bit longer. He raised to 1,800 from early position and the player two to his left made the call. The flop came {8-Hearts} {6-Clubs} {J-Hearts} and Hachem checked. His opponent fired out 4,000 chips and after a brief pause Hachem announced he was all in. His opponent deliberated for about a minute before saying, "Call".

Which is when he learned that his {9-Spades} {8-Spades} trailed Hachem's {9-Clubs} {9-Diamonds}. The {A-Hearts} on the turn and {K-Clubs} on the river sealed the deal and brought Hachem's stack up to around 24,000.
