2005 World Champion Joe Hachem
Joe Hachem raises to 1,050 and is reraised to 3,050 by Jason Gray. Joe moves his last 6,900 in with {A-Diamonds}{K-Diamonds}, only to run into Jason's {K-Clubs}{K-Spades}.

The board read {6-Diamonds}{5-Spades}{4-Hearts}{6-Hearts}{7-Clubs} and we lose the 2005 World Champion.

After heavy action on the flop and a reraise on the turn, Mark Vos moved all in and took down a pot in excess of 15,000, showing the table {Q-Clubs}{3-Clubs} for a stone cold bluff.

A couple hands later Joe Hachem bet 3,000 on a flop of {4-Hearts}{9-Clubs}{4-Spades}. His opponent min raised to 6,000 and Hachem went into the tank, eventually folding. His opponent showed pocket Nines for a flopped full house. Hachem now down to 9,500.
