The cut off opened to 450 and the button shoved for 2,525 before Jonathan Duhamel was asked what he wanted to do from the small blind. He made a call which resulted in quick folds from the big blind and the cut off. Duhamel showed his and was up against the from his neighbor. The flop was a catastrophe for Duhamel though: . The on the turn didn't do anything for the former WSOP Main Event winner, and neither did the on the river.
James Mackey opened under-the-gun to 425 and got a single caller. Mackey made a 525 continuation-bet on and his opponent in middle position made the call.
