Tony Hachem is Psychic

Four players limped in and saw a flop of 6-4-3. The action was checked around. The turn was a deuce. Tony Hachem fired out 400 and got one caller. The river was a 5. Hachem checked, his opponent bet 500, and Hachem went into the tank.

"I bet you have sevens" said Tony as he agonized over his decision. Ultimately, he folded {A-Hearts}{5-Hearts} face-up. Sure enough, his opponent showed pocket sevens.

After the hand, Hachem was down to 2,500 in chips.

Michael Vartan had one of the unluckier table draws today, as he is seated directly opposite Phil "The Unabomber" Laak. Laak has been chattering nonstop at his opponents since the cards went in the air (this reporter heard something about molecular particles on her last pass near this table). Nevertheless, Vartan has managed to amass one of the tournament's healthier stacks at this early stage, with 10,200 in chips in front of him.
