Michael Lech raised to 4,500 from the button and William Gibbons three-bet to 20,000 in the small blind. Joe Hachem shoved for 36,000 in total from the big blind and Lech dived into the tank.
The ESPN camera crew swarmed the table as the 2005 Main Event Champ had put his tournament life at risk. Lech ended up folding and now it was Gibbons' turn to consider his options. Gibbon looked at the pot, at how much more he'd have to put in, and took some more time to consider his options.
"I really want to fold here," Gibbons said but still made the call in the end.
Joe Hachem: 
William Gibbons: 
The board ran out 
for Hachem to hold and double up.
Lech said he folded ace-jack and Hachem responded: "You're such a good player! All day long, I thought you were shit, but now... I think you're a good player."
The table all laughed.
"I knew you had an ace, so I was happy you folded as I knew he had bupkis," Hachem said while pointing to Gibbons. Gibbons laughed and they joked around a bit more after shaking hands.
