Big Flop for Duhamel

Team PokerStars Pro Jonathan Duhamel checked the {A-Diamonds}{K-Diamonds}{J-Clubs}{9-Spades} board, and Govert Metaal fired 5,500. Duhamel check-raised to 16,000, and Metaal called.

The river was the {2-Diamonds} to complete a possible flush draw. Duhamel opted on a bet amount of 26,500, and Metaal called after a minute of thought. Duhamel tabled the {Q-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds} for a flush, but he already had a stranglehold on the hand after flopping a Broadway straight. Metaal mucked, and Duhamel won the pot.

"Get enough of it, Jon?" asked McLean Karr from the other end of the table with a laugh.

"Yeah, you barely got ahold of that flop," added Chance Kornuth from next to Karr.

"What's it like to get those kinds of flops?" asked Karr to finish off the friendly ribbing.
