Duhamel quickly called for a total of 51,625 and the cards were turned up:

flop gave him some straight outs with any ten. The turn brought him one step close to elimination, but much to his relief and the surprise of the other players, the 
spiked on the river! Duhamel hit his card to double to just over 100K while Smith dropped back down to the starting stack of 50,000.

Everyone knows who this kid is, the reigning World Series of Poker Main Event champion. Since winning the massive prize of $8,944,310 in that event, Duhamel hasn’t been a slouch on the felt. In the beginning of 2011, Duhamel traveled to the European Poker Tour Deauville event and won the €10,000 High Roller for €200,000. That’s not all he’s done though.
Duhamel went to the NBC National Heads-Up Championship and placed fourth in a field that contained some of the best players in the world. Duhamel scored $125,000 for his finish there, eventually falling to fellow WSOP champion Chris Moneymaker.
When it came time for heads-up play at his Bounty Shootout table, Duhamel was heads up with none other than Moneymaker. The rematch only had to wait a few days and this time Duhamel came out on top.
Duhamel collected four bounties while sitting at the feature table on his starting day.
