Hachem and Guillaume DONG'D

Joe Hachem before elimination

Jonathan 'xMONSTERxDONGx' Karamalikis opened from under the gun to 3,000 and received calls from Joe Hachem, Patry Guillaume and another player.

The flop fell down {J-Hearts}{5-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds} and Karamalikis lead out for 10,000. Hachem slid his last 36,000 into the middle and was instantly followed by Guillaume and his 66,000 in chips.

Karamalikis hesitated for a bit, before tossing in three red 25,000-denomination chips to signify a call.

Hachem: {A-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}
Guillaume: {5-Hearts}{3-Hearts}
Karamalikis: {3-Clubs}{3-Spades}

Hachem would find his diamond on the turn, but it would be the {J-Diamonds} to see Karamalikis fill up and leave Hachem drawing dead.

Guillaume could remain alive if one of the remaining two fives landed, but once the river fell the {6-Clubs}, both Hachem and Guillaume hit the rail as Karamalikis soars to 225,000 in chips.
