Hachem Catching Up
Level 21
: 6,000/12,000, 2,000 ante
Daniel Hachem has closed the gap with a couple of smaller and one big pot. The latter saw him barrel through a board 
and the bet of 60,000 on the river was snap-called by Mohammed Afiouni. Hachem flipped over 
for a pair of nines that turned into a straight draw and made a set on the river, causing Afiouni to shake his head.
"I am playing for second. I told you I gonna play face up," Afiouni joked to his opponent.
