2005 WSOP Main Event champion Joe Hachem has taken his seat at the tables!
Hachem doesn't play too many ANZPT's, but this one in his home town and just so happens to be the largest ANZPT in history, so it's no suprise to see him grinding at the tables.

Team PokerStars Pro and Singapore's all-time tournament money winner Bryan Huang is travelling nicely.
Huang recently scooped up a pot that started when a player opened to 800 from under the gun. Huang, along with two other players, made the call and the dealer flipped over a 
flop. The action was checked to Huang here and he bet 1,700 and took it down.
Huang is now up to 42,000 - more than double the starting stack.

2005 WSOP champ Joe Hachem is up to 48,000. Plenty of those chips came recently without having to see a flop. Apparently it started with one player opening it up with a min-raise preflop. The player directly on Hachem's right then three-bet and Hachem promptly four-bet. It was folded back around to the three-bettor and he five bet to 12,000. Hachem then six-bet jammed for 30,000 and the player eventually opted to fold.
