Duhamel Makes the Magician Vanish

Jonathan Duhamel

That's it for the feature table. Antonio Esfandiari has been playing from behind since the very beginning of his match against Jonathan Duhamel. On a flop of {4-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}{9-Hearts}, Esfandiari made his move. He shoved all in with a flush draw, {k-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds}. Duhamel called with a better flush draw, {a-Diamonds}{q-Diamonds}.

"Deuce! Deuce!" shouted Esfandiari. No such luck; the turn fell {10-Diamonds} to give Duhamel the nuts and to eliminate Esfandiari from the tournament. Doyle Brunson and Dennis Phillips are now being moved to the feature table.
