Joe Hachem Playing His First Seniors Event

Level 5 : 150/300, 50 ante

A new name was on the registration list for the Seniors Event: 2005 World Series of Poker Main Event Champion Joe Hachem.

Hachem, who turned 51 in March, didn't play in this event last year and we asked him how he felt to be playing this prestigious event for the first time.

"I tell you," said Hachem, "I had to check my ego at the door!"

Hachem sits on just over 10,000 in the Miranda room midway through Level 5.
