Hachem Eliminated

2005 WSOP champion - Joe Hachem
2005 WSOP champion - Joe Hachem
From early position Joe Hachem raised to 1700 and was called by Thailand's Mortin Kaspersen and one other player from late position.

The players see a flop of {J-Clubs}{10-Hearts}{3-Diamonds} and all check.

Turn {2-Hearts}
Hachem leads out for 3000 and Kaspersen raises to 9000. The late-position player folds and Hachem looks to the table and says "Am I going to go broke on this hand because it doesn't make sense."

Hachem goes into the tank but then announces "all-in". Kaspersen instantly calls and opens {10-Diamonds}{10-Spades} and Hachem is drawing dead with his {9-Diamonds}{9-Hearts}. The irrelevant river of {K-Hearts} is dealt and we lose Team PokerStars member and 2005 WSOP champion Joe Hachem.
