Duhamel Might've Saved Chips

Level 1 : 500/1,000, 100 ante
Jonathan Duhamel
Jonathan Duhamel

From the button, Team PokerStars Pro Jonathan Duhamel raised to 3,000. Dani Stern made the call from the small blind, then Vladimir Troyanovsky reraised to 11,000 from the big blind. Duhamel and Stern both called, and the dealer pulled in the bets before running out the {A-Diamonds}{7-Spades}{6-Spades} flop.

On the flop, Stern checked first, then Troyanovsky fired 18,000. Duhamel flatted behind before Stern gave it up and left the other two to do battle.

The turn was the {3-Diamonds}, and Troyanovsky checked. Duhamel checked behind.

The river was the {6-Hearts}, and Troyanovsky checked again. Duhamel took his time, then fired 28,000. Troyanovsky tank-called, and watched Duhamel roll over the {J-Spades}{9-Spades} for a missed flush draw. Troyanovsky showed the {A-Spades}{3-Spades} for two pair, but he also had spades, so it could've been very bad new for Duhamel if he did in fact hit his flush.
