Duhamel Does Work

Jonathan Duhamel and Robert Pisano tangled up preflop, and their clash left Duhamel all in for 1.715 million chips. The cards were turned up, and the race was on:

Duhamel: {A-Hearts} {K-Clubs}
Pisano: {6-Hearts} {6-Spades}

There was agony on Duhamel's face throughout the rest of the hand, and with good reason. The flop brought him no help with {7-Diamonds} {3-Clubs} {J-Hearts} and the turn {5-Clubs} was useless as well. Duhamel was one card from elimination, but a timely {K-Hearts} spiked the river to save his tournament life an double him up. He's over 3.5 million now, climbing just past Pisano and his ~3.2 million chips.
