The Canadian poker pro Jonathan Duhamel took down the World Series of Poker main event title and $8.94 MILLION Monday night in Las Vegas.

Duhamel took the last of the Florida pro John Racener’s chips in the no-limit Texas Hold ’em tournament with an ace high after 43 hands in which Racener was no better than a 4-1 underdog in chips.

Duhamel, an online cash game player who said poker has been his primary income for about two years, pushed Racener all-in, and Racener called with a suited king-eight of diamonds. But Duhamel had an unsuited ace-jack for the lead. A flop of two fours and a nine helped neither player; and Racener did not improve with a six on the turn and a five on the river.
