Hachem's Rocket Ship

Level 21 : 8,000/16,000, 2,000 ante
Joe Hachem
Joe Hachem

In the cutoff seat, Joe Hachem opened the pot to what looked like 36,000, and Alex Kamberis was the lone caller, coming along from the button.

The two men watched a {7-Clubs} {Q-Spades} {K-Diamonds} flop slide off the deck, and Hachem continued out with 56,000 chips. Kamberis didn't waste too much time calling, and that drew a check from Hachem when the {9-Hearts} landed on fourth street. Kamberis checked it back, and the {K-Clubs} paired the board on fifth street. When Hachem checked again, Kamberis took his cue to fire 98,000 at the pot.

Hachem instantly called, rolling over {A-Clubs} {A-Hearts} as he did. "I was hoping to get a value bet from ace-queen," he said as Kamberis flashed his mystery cards and spun his cards into the muck.

"I almost didn't," he lamented, possibly indicating that he did indeed have the ace-queen. In any event, that nice pot moves Hachem up to 760,000, while Kamberis slides back under a million with 860,000.
