Did Hachem Have the Prettiest Card?

Level 3 : 150/300, 0 ante

Joe Hachem raised in late position, an opponent on the button called, and the flop fell {a-Diamonds}{a-Clubs}{3-Diamonds}. Hachem continued for 1,200, the player called, and both players knuckled when the {8-Diamonds} turned. The {3-Spades} completed the board, Hachem fired out anoth 3,800, and his opponent folded.

"Show one," the player requested. "But not the ace. The jack."

With a smile on his face, the 2005 Main Event champion obliged, showing the {9-Spades}.

"So you had the prettiest card in the deck?" the player asked Hachem, who neither confirmed nor denied the claim.
