POKER INFO - PROILE - Joseph Hachem

I just saw the replay of the Main Event this year and had to comment about what a real class act Joseph Hacem is. Not only did he quiet the crowd before the last card, but he made it a point to congratulate Steve before he started to celebrate. Fantastic show Joseph............ Hope to see you again.

If you don't think Joseph Hachem is a good player duh he's a legend.He defeated 6518 players!!

You think this guy is a legend? This guy isn't even good, he doesn't have any talent. This was his first wsop main event, I could go on forever about how lucky and untalented this guy is. When it was down to 3 or 4 players in the main event, some guy raised with 9-9 and hachem reraised with Q-7. Caught his queen and doubled up. Hachem will never win the main event ever again, and probably won't get more than 2 wsop bracelets. This guy is a joke.

he's not a legend, and did get lucky, and i'm not saying he's the real deal, but he's not a bad player at all...he's been cashing in tourneys a fair amount, and last year before winning the big one, he placed 10th in other WSOP event...he's no pro, but he's been doing leap and bounds better than moneymaker and raymer since they won it

Raymer finished in the 1/2 of 1 % in the main even the year after he won it. He is the best, and most respected, amateur winner of the WSOP in the last few years.

He may not be a legend yet, but this guy can play. He's no fluke. Made a nice run a few weeks ago placing in second at one of the holdem WSOP events.

[?????]

Deport all those idiots who were yelling "aussie-aussie etc"

[pirates66]

He'll never win the main event ever again... wow.

With the fields as big as they are now, there will probably never be a repeat ME champion again

[bad_dog76]

I'd like to punch him right in the mush but the man knows how to play holdem. His pass the sugar comment is abotu as gay as he is.

[madladflush]

I love the pass the sugar comment. It's brilliant.

Hachem almost got 2 bracelets but he got 4th

[ITGuy321]

the fact that he got several pocket aces and kings, and all around great cards almost every hand didn't come in to play at all...ya think?
He can play, sure, but he got as far as he did because he got alot of good cards...as opposed to someone like Harrington who is simply patient and scrapped for his pots.

he's the real deal... sure, it takes a lot of good cards to win the big one, but it also takes a lot of good play.. just look at that fold he made against Kanter who would've made his straight on the river if Hachem called (with the better hand at the time). he would have been out right there. he's a great player who had enough luck going for him to get it done.

Is Mr. Joseph Hachem jewish?

[?????]

12/06 He just won the Main Event at the Bellagio, andm 2.1 mil

[headlessman1964]

he can play but he is still a small-time annie duke or mike the mouth,,runs his mouth and hates to lose,,not classy for a 7.5 million dollar man

[?????]

It turns out that he is a piece of sh*%...in the same class as Josh Arieah and Mike Matosow (although I recently moved Matosow from a piece of shi* to probation...it seems hen is off the coke, and acting differantly in tournaments.

We should remember that Australia was settled as a colony for criminals...take a good look at this creep, he certainly is a decendent of one of the insane criminals sent to the continent.
