One for the Good Guys

Someone bring Tony Hachem a white hat.
Someone bring Tony Hachem a white hat.
It's getting hard to keep up with the action. An all in and a call brought us scurrying to Tony Hachem's table, where his {10-Clubs} {10-Spades} were trying to eliminate a short stack, who tabled {A-Diamonds} {J-Diamonds}.

"I've got your tens," Hachem told Young Phan. "They've gotta hold up."

The dealer produced the perfect drama flop, {A-Spades} {8-Diamonds} {10-Diamonds}. Hachem made a set of tens but had to fade his opponent's flush draw.

"What a flop!" said Phan with a laugh.

The turn and river were both small clubs, {5-Clubs} and {4-Clubs}, giving Hachem the pot and the elimination.

"One for the good guys," said Hachem as he stacked up 53,000 chips.
