Joe Hachem Eliminated in 6th Place

Joe Hachem - 6th Place
Joe Hachem - 6th Place
Stud:

Just before the break, we lost our first player.

Billy "The Croc" was the bring-in, showing the {3-Spades}. Joe Hachem raised with the {A-Diamonds}, and Mark Vos called with the {J-Hearts}.

On fourth street, Argyros checked, Hachem bet, and both Vos and Argyros called.

On fifth street, Argyros checked and Hachem bet all in for 500. Vos raised to 1,300, isolating himself against Hachem. Argyros folded and the hands were shown down:

Hachem: ({2-Hearts} {8-Spades}) {A-Diamonds} {6-Diamonds} {9-Diamonds}
Vos: ({K-Hearts} {10-Hearts}) {J-Hearts} {4-Hearts} {10-Spades}

Hachem picked up a pair on sixth street with the {2-Clubs}, but Vos drew the {10-Diamonds}, giving him triple tens. Hachem picked up a useless {4-Clubs} on the river, while Vos improved further with the {K-Diamonds}. His tens full of kings was enough to win the hand and eliminate the world champion from today's field.

Vos has moved up to 19,800 and is the chip leader.
