Level 23
: 12,000/24,000, 2,000 ante
In early position, Victor Ramdin opened to 52,000, and Joe Hachem defended his big blind with a call. Both players let the cameras peek at their cards, and it was Ramdin's 
with a small lead over Hachem's 
.
The two men both flopped pairs as the dealer spread out 
. Hachem checked, then called a bet of what looked like 92,000 from Ramdin. That led them to the 
turn, a good card for Hachem. With two pair, he fired out a cool 200,000, and Ramdin flatted with his top pair now trailing. The 
on the river drew checks from both players, and Hachem's two pair gives him the pot to move dangerously close to 2 million.
