Affleck v. Duhamel II
It's so hard to get around in this room that we're just now noticing a few things for the first time.
We went over to snap a photo of Matt Affleck after spotting his familiar blue-and-yellow Mariners retro jersey. When we got there, lo and behold, we see that Jonathan Duhamel is sitting to his direct right.
The last time these two men played together, they tangled up in a pot worth 42 million chips, significantly more than are in play in this entire room right now. You may remember the hand from our WSOP coverage, the brutal cracking of Affleck's aces that eliminated him in 15th place. It was an emotional moment for Affleck after running deep with big chips in the Main Event for two consecutive years.
Affleck's got a shot at revenge here today, and he once again has a big stack of about 75,000.
