While it may have been a small pot, Thomas Boekhoff just got some of his chips back from Joe Hachem after calling the former world champ down to the river with middle pair. Boekhoff checked-called a Hachem bet on a {10-Diamonds}

{10-Diamonds}

{3-Diamonds}

{K-Clubs}

flop, and another when the {8-Spades}

{8-Spades}

fell on the turn. The last card off the deck was the {9-Spades}

{9-Spades}

and both players knuckled the table, opting to move straight to the showdown.

"Do I have to show first?" Boekhoff asked the dealer, who nodded, prompting Boekhoff to turn over {Q-Diamonds}

{Q-Diamonds}

{10-Spades}

for a single pair of tens. As it turned out, that was all he needed to win the 100,000+ pot, as Hachem mucked. Boekhoff now has right around 400,000 in chips.
