Weinberg: 
Duhamel: 
With Duhamel in dominating shape, the 
board would see his superior kicker hold strong as he doubled to 125,000 while Weinberg slipped to 264,000 in chips.
After seeing a flop of 
, Min Ku got it all-in against a shorter stack and showed his 
. Ku was dominated by the 
of his opponent and needed to catch a three-outer to take the pot.
The dealer peeled the
