We picked up the action on the flop as the dealer spread out 
. Action was heads up, and Joe Hachem checked. William Thorson bet 3,100 only to see Hachem check-raise to 8,500, but the action wasn't dying there. Thorson reraised to 15,700, and Hachem popped it right back up to 29,500. Thorson flatted now, and the 
landed on fourth street. Perhaps sensing something foul, Hachem checked, and Thorson settled on a bet of 41,000.
It would be some five minutes or so before Hachem reluctantly slipped his cards into the muck, and that pot will push Thorson into a big chip lead. He's got about 160,000 now, while Hachem has taken a big hit back down to about 71,000.
