Hachem Dodges Bullets
Level 27
: Blinds 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante
Joe Hachem raised on the button to 250,000, and Nektarios Dimitrakis made the call in the small blind. Dimitrakis quickly checked the K♠Q♠5♠ flop, where Hachem continued for 200,000.
Dimitrakis called and checked again on the 6♣ turn. Hachem checked back, and another pair of checks followed the 8♦ river.
Dimitrakis tabled A♠A♦, and Hachem let out a sigh of relief at not betting the river.
"I dodged a bullet there," said Hachem as he mucked, and Dimitrakis collected the pot.
