Joe's Turn to Tick Up
Joe Hachem's brother Tony has shot up the chip counts today, and Joe just won a hand off of Isaac Haxton, pushing him above the six-figure mark.
There was about 26,500 in the pot when we reached the table, and the flop had already fallen 
. Hachem led out for 16,500 from the small blind, and Haxton called from the button.
The turn was the 
, and Hachem slowed down, check-calling 17,000 from Haxton. Both players knuckled after the 
completed the board, and Hachem opened up 
for a pair of nines. Haxton mucked, and Hachem raked in the pot.
