We didn't catch the action in this Joe Hachem hand, but he did double up, bringing him back from the brink of destruction.

Hachem: {a-Diamonds}

{a-Diamonds}

{j-Hearts}

{k-Hearts}

{q-Spades}

Opponent:

{a-Hearts}

{k-Spades}

{k-Clubs}

{6-Clubs}

Board:

{a-Spades}

{3-Diamonds}

{q-Hearts}

{4-Hearts}

{9-Hearts}

Hachem doubled up to 2,000 in that hand only to lose it all a few hands later.

There were three limpers in the pot before Hachem raised it up to 2,200. The big blind made the call as the other three got out of the way.

The big blind checked the {k-Diamonds}

{k-Diamonds}

{3-Clubs}

{4-Clubs}

flop, Hachem put his remaining 400 in chips in the middle, and the big blind called.

Hachem showed {5-Hearts}

{5-Hearts}

{a-Diamonds}

{a-Spades}

{6-Diamonds}

and his opponent tabled {3-Spades}

{3-Spades}

{3-Hearts}

{a-Hearts}

{k-Hearts}

. The turn and river bricked for Joe and just like that, the PokerStars pro was sent to the rail.
