Battle of the Australian Poker Hall of Famers

Level 5 : 100/200, 0 ante

Australia's most popular poker player, 2005 World Series of Poker Main Event champ Joe Hachem, has arrived to the 2014 WSOP APAC.

He recently late registered Event #3, but thus far things aren't going his way. In a recent hand, Hachem opened for 400 from the hijack only to have fellow Australian Poker Hall of Fame member Mel Judah three-bet to 1,500 from the button. The blinds both folded, and Hachem wasted little time in making the call to see a flop of {7-Diamonds}{3-Hearts}{4-Hearts}, which he checked.

Judah tossed out three teal T1,000 chips, which put Hachem, who had 2,300 behind, to the test. Hachem thought for about 45 seconds before sending his cards to the dealer.
