Hachem Shows Another Bluff
Level 27
: 30,000/60,000, 5,000 ante
On the button, Jeremy Ausmus looked down at 
and put in a standard 2X raise, which Joe Hachem called from the small blind. When the flop fell 
, Hachem led out for 190,000 and it was Ausmus' turn to call.
Hachem proceeded to bet 350,000, into the pot of 660,000, when the 
hit the turn. Ausmus thought awhile before decided to lay it down. Hachem quickly showed 
as a smile crept across his face.

Level 27
: 30,000/60,000, 5,000 ante
With a Joe Hachem raise in front of him, Taylor von Kriegenbergh three-bet shoved for just about a million chips total. When it came back to Hachem, he instantly called, and von Kriegenbergh was at risk as the cards were on their backs.
Showdown
Hachem: 
von Kriegenbergh: 
The 
flop was a fine sight for Hachem, leaving his short-stacked opponent drawing dead to runner-runner. The turn 
was not what von Kriegenbergh was looking for as it sealed his fate as the fourth-place finisher.
That's good for $140,000, and it should be a fine consolation prize for the recent college graduate. "It's a good chunk of money," he said though. "It's about $100,000 more than I've made in any tourney."
It's a good result and a huge ROI for a guy who satellited into this event for about fifty bucks.
Queens for Ramdin
Level 27
: 30,000/60,000, 5,000 ante
Jeremy Ausmus raised to 130,000 on the button with 
, which inspired Joe Hachem to fold in the small blind. Victor Ramdin then looked down at 
and decided to get innovative and reraised all in for 2.4 million. The bet seemed a bit suspicious to Ausmus but he laid his hand down nonetheless.
Middle Set for Ausmus
Level 27
: 30,000/60,000, 5,000 ante
Victor Ramdin raised on the button with and received a call from the 
of Jeremy Ausmus on the button. The 
flop gave Ausmus a set and he led out for 150,000, which Ramdin called.
The dealer then burned and turned the 
and Ausmus bet 340,000. Surprisingly, Ramdin called again, leading to the 
on the river. This time Ausmus fired out 880,000 and Ramdin didn't take long to fold. Ausmus is up to around 8 million.
Hachem Ships 30 BBs
Level 27
: 30,000/60,000, 5,000 ante
Jeremy Ausmus raised on the button with 
and Joe Hachem shoved for about 30 big blinds with

Ramdin Flush With Clubs
Level 27
: 30,000/60,000, 5,000 ante
Jeremy Ausmus opened with a miniraise to 120,000 first to go, and Victor Ramdin called to see a flop from the small blind.
Ausmus:
Ramdin: 
The 
gave both players hopes of claiming the pot, but the action went check-check. Ausmus' check-back gave Ramdin the help he needed as the 
turn filled in his club draw. With the nut flush, Ramdin led out with 150,000, and Ausmus quickly called. The river was a good card for Ramdin to get action, and his final 350,000-chip bet was also matched without too much delay.
Ramdin showed down the winner, grabbing the million-chip pot to get back up over 3 million.
Von Krigenbergh Put to the Test
Level 27
: 30,000/60,000, 5,000 ante
Joe Hachem folded his button, Victor Ramdin completed from the small blind, and Taylor von Kriegenbergh knocked the table for a free flop.
Ramdin: 
Von Kriegenbergh:
The dealer spread out 
, and both players checked to the 
turn. Ramdin checked again to let von Kriegenbergh take a stab before check-raising from 60,000 to 160,000. With just king-high, von Kriegenbergh didn't waste too much time making the call. That brought them to the river, and Ramdin took his pause. After some time, he announced an all in, and that sent von Kriegenbergh into the tank.
"Wow," he said. "There's one person sick enough to call with this..."
Von Kriegenbergh apparently is not that person as he correctly surrendered his cards into the muck.
