Stop -- Hammer Time!

Hachem not calling much at his table today.
Hachem not calling much at his table today.
Tony Hachem wants everyone to know that he's here to play some poker. He and one opponent both checked a flop of {J-Diamonds} {6-Spades} {4-Diamonds}, Hachem fired out for 200 when the turn fell {8-Hearts}. His opponent called. On the river {K-Spades}, Hachem fearlessly bet another 600 chips, folding his opponent.

"Yes!" cried Hachem. He joyously turned over his cards, revealing {7-Clubs} {2-Hearts} -- the "Hammer", the worst starting hand in hold'em. He seemed quite pleased with himself as he raked in the pot, all the while staying loose courtesy of a table massage. Apparently the table massage is working. Hachem has hit a small rush, most recently turning a gutshot straight, to chip up to 8,500.
