Joe Hachem moved his last 13,000 into the middle from the button and got a quick call from Gabe Kaplan. The cards were turned up and we had a classic race, with Hachem holding {2-Diamonds}

{2-Diamonds}

{2-Clubs}

against Kaplan's {Q-Spades}

{Q-Spades}

{J-Spades}

.

Kaplan wasted no time taking the lead on a flop of {J-Diamonds}

{J-Diamonds}

{8-Diamonds}

{7-Clubs}

and Hachem couldn't catch up as the board completed {4-Clubs}

{4-Clubs}

{9-Diamonds}
