Duhamel: Still Running Good

Jonathan Duhamel found himself in the unenviable position of pushing all in pre-flop with {8-Clubs}{7-Clubs}. Melvin Whitmire called with {a-Hearts}{q-Hearts} and a commanding chip lead.

"It's a queen in the window -- and two sevens behind!" exclaimed MOC Jordan Siegel. Duhamel gave his trademark smirk at the {q-Spades}{7-Diamonds}{7-Spades}. By the river, Duhamel improved to quads. He's still behind in the match but he has the slightest bit of breathing room now.
