Chris Moneymaker is the only player pokerstars really need to keep. When they have chris they own online poker simply because he started it all.

Probaly gonna get his own U.S. room. If Phil Laak can get one (Unabomber, a cake skin) then joe can also.

So who is gonna crucify Chris? We got to get the ball rolling...

Never like the Hachem bros, Joe was a good ambassador but it felt fake and was a douche at times thanks to his ego from winning the ME

Either one of those ideas might be in the mold imo.

that doest make sense here... poker is not a physical sport..... ans 50 is not old.

douche or not, JH is still a very popular personality in many parts of the world.

Either he left for his own reasons, or, if PS dumped him, it was for some other , as yet unknown, reason.

Joe could be signing on to the same site Trickett just signed with, that Asia site. Just like how when Stars dropped Isildur, was pretty obvious he was going to be part of team FT, so maybe the same for Hachem but at that Asia site.

Joe sucks the big one at poker... he's up there with that Smith chap who always wears a baseball-cap.

I'm trying to determine what kind of "career opportunities" for a professional poker player would outdo being one of the most visible representatives of the world's largest poker site.

Maybe start your own room/site?

He obviously wants to become a professional accordion player now.

but really . . . joe hachem had a life BEFORE he became a poker superstar! and you dont take down the main event by being an all around IDIOT in general life...well unless youre Chris Moneymaker, or Jamie Gold hahaha but im sure Joe Hachem has lots of personal skills outside of poker, and now not only does he have life skill, but he has the money to back it up! he can do whatever the faaaack he wants now!! Im JelllllY!!!!
