Hachem Folds To Down Bet, Hartmann Eliminated
Level 17
: 4,000/8,000, 0 ante
Joe Hachem raised to 18,000 from middle position and action folded back to Nathan Gamble in the big blind. Gamble put in a pot-sized three-bet to 58,000 and Hachem asked for confirmation of the amount, thinking for a few moments before making the call.
The flop came 
and Gamble bet 25,000. Hachem again asked for confirmation and went into the tank. Two minutes later, he pushed his cards forward for the dealer to muck them and Gamble took down the pot.
Meanwhile, Tony Hartmann was eliminated on an adjacent table, bringing the tournament close to condensing to five full tables of eight-handed play.
