expert play from Joe Hachem. Must be tough having a PS Pro in your games ;)

shouldn't having a named pro be considered cheating in this challenge? :)

Sadly we didn't get any TDL games going while we were down under :( Could have been sweet.

LMFAO. Hachem taking 2 BB's to the face with 3567.

Wouldn't you want to toss the 9 from the beginning though, assuming your opponents are actually drawing at real hands? Maybe me just being nitty, since I have no clue who this maniacal villain is.
