Over 7,000 poker players anted up for the World Series of Poker Championship in July, but only the November Nine made it to this past weekend's final table. Yesterday, 2 young card sharks circled each other for hours until Jonathan Duhamel devoured John Racener for the $8.9 million prize.
Duhamel, 23, became the first Canadian citizen in the 41 year history of poker's world championship. From Boucherville, Quebec, he was an early favorite at the final table with one-third of the chip count at the start. After battling for 14 hours a day, for 3 days, Duhamel still came out on top with the win.
Which lucky hand made Duhamel the millions? Watch the heads up match as a 2 hour special feature on ESPN tonight at 7pm PST / 10pm EST.
