Tough Four-Handed Match
Players are slowly taking their seats, and that means there are still plenty of short-handed tables. One of the tables that has a very interesting line-up so far is located on the far right side of the room.
Former World Series of Poker Main Event champion Jonathan Duhamel is facing one of his former final table opponents in Filippo Candio. The Italian finished fourth in the 2010 Main Event cashing just over three million dollars. Duhamel took home almost three times that amount, putting him in second place on the Canadian all time money list behind Daniel Negreanu.
The other two players are also quite accomplished as Brian Roberts place in fourth place in the Main Event here in Cannes last year. Finally there's Andy Frankenberger who beat none other than Phil Ivey in order to win the $10,000 Pot-Limit Hold'em this past summer in Las Vegas. Frankenberger also a World Poker Tour title, and another WSOP bracelet from 2011 when he won a $1,500 No-Limit Hold'em event.
