Joe Hachem Eliminated

A short-stacked Joe Hachem had successfully moved all of his chips in preflop on two occasions during the last orbit, to add the blinds and antes to his stack, but he wasn't able to make it three times lucky.

The action folded to Joe Hachem in the small blind who open-shoved for about 20,000 with {A-Hearts}

{A-Hearts}

{9-Hearts}

but Mike "Timex" McDonald snap-called in the big blind and had him in bad shape with his {A-Diamonds}

{A-Diamonds}

{10-Hearts}

.

With good friend Emad Tahtouh calling the action on the mic, the board ran out {5-Spades}

{5-Spades}

{Q-Diamonds}

{4-Clubs}

{3-Spades}

{5-Clubs}

giving no help to Hachem and eliminating him just short of a final table berth.
