Top Pair Good for Hachem
Level 5
: Blinds 300/600, 600 ante
The heads-up action was picked up with around 6,500 in the pot and a board of 
on the table.
Both players checked through the turn card, leading to the 
river. Joe Hachem, in early position, fired for 4,000. After a minute or so of thought, his opponent, on the button, made the call. Hachem turned over 
for top pair, and his opponent tossed his cards into the muck.
While it may not have been the Day 1 that the 2005 Main Event Champion had been hoping for, with his stack below where it started, he remains in the running.
