I met Rob/Bobby at the WSOP in 2004 and saw him again in 2005. I thought he was a nice kid.
As for Dutch's play against Hachem, he had a LOT of chips. I don't think he was TRYING to get his money in with the worst of it every time, but I think he was making some weaker all in calls, knowing that even if he was a 70/30 dog, that's not that horrible of a spot, and eventually, he'd bust him.
That said, I would have been a little more more conservative, I think, and tried to wait for slightly better spots. I don't think the blinds were that HUGE that he needed to panic.
