Money Goes to Money

Joe Hachem raised from early position and found a caller in late position before the flop came {9-Spades} {8-Spades} {3-Hearts}.

Hachem bet 1,500 before being raised to 3,000. He reraised it to 5,000 before being raised once more, up to 8,000. Hachem made the call, so the turn was dealt {4-Hearts}.

Hachem check-called his opponent's all-in bet holding {10-Hearts} {10-Spades} for an overpair to the board, but he was behind a flopped set with {8-Clubs} {8-Hearts}.

The river came {10-Diamonds}. Hachem made his miracle higher set and moves up to 46,000 as a result.
