Hachem Family Update

[user75032]

Joe Hachem has given back some of the chips he won earlier. With a board of {7-Clubs}

{7-Clubs}

{4-Hearts}

{8-Spades}

{A-Spades}

and 1,800 in the pot, one opponent led out for 1,100. Hachem tanked for about a minute before calling. The river was the {6-Clubs}

{6-Clubs}

. This time Hachem's opponent fired 2,200 into the middle. Hachem again tanked and called. He had {A-Clubs}

{A-Clubs}

{Q-Spades}

for top pair, but his opponent had him out-kicked with {A-Diamonds}

{A-Diamonds}

{K-Clubs}

. That pot pushed Hachem's chip stack down to 14,700.

Tony Hachem is moving up in the world. He got an opponent to call him down on the river with the board showing {2-Hearts}

{2-Hearts}

{5-Hearts}

{K-Spades}

{J-Diamonds}

{J-Hearts}

. Hachem had {A-Hearts}

{A-Hearts}

{6-Hearts}

for the nut flush, a hand that was good enough to win the pot. He now has 13,000 in chips.
