Seat 5: Jonathan Duhamel -- 358,000
Arriving to Day 3 with 358,000 in chips is another Canadian poker player by the name of Jonathan Duhamel. You may remember Duhamel from a certain World Series of Poker final table that he reached in 2010 — you know, the Main Event that he won for a massive $8,944,310. That was clearly Duhamel's big breakout onto the poker scene, but over the years he's proven to be no one-hit wonder.
Duhamel has earned $12,485,554 in his live tournament career, including 17 WSOP cashes since his big Main Event victory and a total of nine other six-figure scores.
Shortly after winning the 2010 WSOP Main Event, Duhamel took down the European Poker Tour Deauville €10,300 High Roller for €200,000. He also finished fourth in the NBC National Heads-Up Championship for $125,000 that same year. Then in 2010, Duhamel had a ridiculous January. He took fourth in the $100,000 Super High Roller for $313,600, fifth in the $5,200 No-Limit Hold'em 8-Max Turbo for $17,990, won the $5,250 No-Limit Hold'em 8-Max for $239,830, and then placed second in the $25,500 High Roller for $634,550 all at the PokerStars Caribbean Adventure.
As for WSOP events, Duhamel cashed twice in the $50,000 Poker Players' Championship — he finished eighth in 2013 for $207,630, and 13th in 2014 for $99,388. Here in Melbourne, Australia, last year, Duhamel took fourth in the AU$1,100 No-Limit Hold'em Accumulator for AU$71,870.
