Family Feud

[user66118]

Saba Hachem raised first in from the button, and he picked up the blinds and antes.

I know, it wouldn't normally be noteworthy except for the fact that Maan Hachem was in the big blind. Maan is Saba's father, and the son's blind thievery drew a good chuckle from the table.
