Hachem's House of Chips

Joe Hachem

As the media started to linger around table four, we caught the action on the river where it appear Joe Hachem had made a check-raise on the river against his opponent. The board read {J-Clubs}{6-Spades}{J-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds}{A-Clubs} and the pot was already sizable as the 4,000 bet on the river by the player on the button had been check-raised to 10,000 by Hachem from the cutoff. The button thought for a few moments about making a move, but eventually mucked his {8-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds} face up for a draw that didn't deliver. Hachem then flashed {A-Diamonds}{J-Spades} for a rivered full house!

Hachem is now hovering around the 70,000 chip mark and has been joined at his table by fellow PokerStars.com pro Chad Brown.
