Duhamel Off to a Good Start

Level 1 : 25/25, 0 ante

On a {8-Spades}{5-Spades}{2-Clubs}{10-Clubs} board, Jonathan Duhamel checked and his opponent bet 800. Duhamel min-raised to 1,600 and his opponent folded.

The very next hand, Duhamel raised from under the gun to 75. The same opponent from the previous hand was next to act and made it 200. It was folded back around to Duhamel who put the player all in and the opponent made the call. Duhamel showed {J-Diamonds}{J-Hearts} and had his opponent who held {10-Diamonds}{10-Clubs} crushed. The board ran out {A-Hearts}{8-Clubs}{7-Diamonds}{7-Hearts}{4-Hearts} as Duhamel chipped up to 6,500 while his opponent hit the rail.
