Hachem Hits Gin on the River
Level 12
: 1,000/2,000, 300 ante
Just before the break, 2005 World Series of Poker champ Joe Hachem won a big pot off Josep Maria Galindo.
We picked up the action with around 10,000 in the pot and a board reading ![]()
![]()
![]()
. Hachem bet 8,500 from the small blind, Galindo called from the big, and the under-the-gun player got out of the way to make it heads-up action to the
river.
Hachem bet again, this time 21,000, and Galindo thought for a bit before making the call. Hachem silently rolled over the ![]()
to show that he had hit a gutshot to Broadway, and Galindo shook his head in disbelief before sending his hand to the muck.
