Hachem Tanks Middle Pair and A Busted Draw

Aaron Benton has Tony Hachem in his sights
Aaron Benton has Tony Hachem in his sights
Three players including Tony Hachem and Aaron Benton limped a {A-Hearts}{k-Clubs}{2-Hearts} flop. On the flop Benton led out with a bet, and Hachem made the call to go heads-up to the {5-Spades} turn.

On the turn Benton bet 1,500 and Hachem once again made the flat call. On the river {7-Clubs} Benton fired 2,100 and this sent Hachem into the tank.

"Have you got a flush draw?" probed Hachem.

There was no response from Benton. A few moments later Hachem was at it again "Is my ace out-kicked?".

Again no response from Benton.

"Aaron has been playing me all morning," said Hachem to no one in particular, "I just need to figure this out".

After a while longer in the tank Benton had seen enough. "Look Tony, if you want to see my hand, just say 'Hey Aaron, I'd like to see your hand'". With this Hachem open mucked {k-Hearts}{3-Hearts} for a busted flush draw and middle pair. Benton rolled over two pair {A-Clubs}{5-Clubs}.

"You got no idea how I play," said Benton to Hachem.
