Back-to-Back Pots for Tony Hachem

Tony Hachem limped in from early position, the button raised to 1,600 and Hachem called. The flop was {8-Spades}{7-Hearts}{5-Clubs} and both players checked. The turn was the {J-Spades}. Hachem bet 1,600, the button raised to 3,600 and Hachem called. The river was the {6-Diamonds} and both players checked again. Hachem turned over {5-Spades}{5-Hearts} for a set of fives while the button showed {K-Clubs}{K-Spades} He had 20,000 after the hand.

On the very next deal, Hachem raised UTG to 2,200 and the same player, now sitting in the cutoff, called all in. Hachem turned over A-A while his opponent showed K-T. The flop was a doozy for Hachem-- A-6-6 giving him a full house. The turn was a K and the river was a T, giving his opponent two pair, too late.

Hachem's stack currently sits at 25,000.
