Tony Joins Joe for Early Dinner

Tony Hachem eliminated
Tony Hachem eliminated
Tony Hachem wins the last-longer bet with Joe, but not by much, as he can now join his brother for an early dinner after being recently eliminated.

Hachem was all in preflop holding {10-Clubs}{10-Diamonds} against the {A-Spades}{Q-Clubs} of John Juanda. The board ran out {Q-Spades}{3-Diamonds}{7-Spades}{8-Hearts}{9-Diamonds} to give Juanda a pair of queens to eliminate Hachem from the tournament.

"I can't win when I have it, and I lose when I'm against it," exclaimed Hachem in reference to the ace-queen of his opponent, as he stood, shook everyone's hand and continued to bemoan his luck as he departed the tournament floor.

Van Marcus was nearby and overheard to comment, "Tony loses a coin flip and flips out!"
