Duhamel seeking to be the WSOP’s first Canadian champ
November 8, 2010 - 8:29 pm
If Quebec resident Jonathan Duhamel wins the World Series of Poker’s Main Event tonight, he will be the first Canadian to win the title in the $10,000 buy-in No-limit World Championship.
Duhamel has a chance to become the second non-American citizen in the last three years to win the Main Event, following Peter Eastgate of Denmark’s win in 2008.
Duhamel would be the third non-American to win since 2005, when Australia’s Joe Hecham won the event.
