Hachem Doubles Through Powell

Hachem Happy To Double Up
Hachem Happy To Double Up
An early position player raised to 500 with Julian Powell, Joe Hachem and David Chiu all making the call.

They took a flop of {2-Diamonds}{3-Spades}{7-Hearts} and it was checked to Powell in the cutoff who fired out 2,200. Hachem popped it up to 4,500 and the other two players stepped aside before Powell made the call.

The turn was the {7-Spades} and Powell checked to Hachem who fired 6,000. Powell thought for a long time before eventually raising to 12,000 which was enough to put Hachem all in. Hachem called and tabled {Q-Hearts}{Q-Spades} as Powell cringed and revealed {9-Hearts}{9-Diamonds}.

The river landed the {8-Clubs} and Hachem doubles up to 33,750 leaving Powell with only 5,425.
