Joe Hachem Eliminated

2005 World Champion Joe Hachem
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.

Feature Table Action

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.
