Todd Brunson Takes Berry Johnston to the Felt

Berry Johnston's late arrival is what started the issue that had us taking an unscheduled break. According to WSOP rules, the minimum stack a late player should have had was 8,200 chips; although a number of late players did start with less.

On the first hand after the unscheduled break, Todd Brunson put Berry Johnston all-in. They both started with 10-9-8...but Brunson had a 3 to Johnston's 4. Berry Johnston rebought and Todd proclaimed (tongue and cheek) that he liked the ruling as he ended up with more chips.
