What's a Duckworth?

Jamie Pickering came into the pot raising from middle position, making it 600 to play. Action passed around to Tim Duckworth on the button, and he re-raised to 1,800. When it came back around the table, Pickering moved all-in for about 2,000 chips. Duckworth made the call, turning over {K-Clubs} {Q-Hearts}. His opponent was live, but behind and at risk of elimination with his {8-Spades} {4-Spades}.

The flop brought some drama, rolling out {Q-Spades} {9-Hearts} {2-Spades}. The turn was the {4-Diamonds}, and the river was the {Q-Diamonds}, earning Duckworth the knockout. He has chipped up to 9,850.
