Russell Rosenblum raises to 1,500 preflop and Joe Hachem calls out of the big blind.

The flop is {Q-Diamonds}{10-Spades}{A-Hearts}. Hachem checks and Rosenblum bets 2,000. Hachem calls.

The turn is {J-Hearts} and Hachem checks. Rosenblum asks for a count of Hachem's remaining chips -- about 17,000 -- and bets 5,000.

Hachem folds angrily. "Today you are running like god against me" Joe says. "Do you realize how bad I've been running for the past two years?" says Rosenblum. Hachem has 17,000 left and Rosenblum has 140,000.
