Todd Brunson's imposing presence has been removed from the Orange section of the Amazon Room, courtesy of Max Pescatori. Brunson opened from early position with a raise that was called by Pescatori and one other player. Brunson fired again on a flop of {A-Diamonds}

{A-Diamonds}

{8-Clubs}

{2-Hearts}

. Only Pescatori called.

When the turn fell {5-Hearts}

{5-Hearts}

, Brunson fired for the third time. This time Pescatori raised, enough to set Brunson all in. Brunson called and showed down {A-Hearts}

{A-Hearts}

{7-Clubs}

{6-Diamonds}

{2-Spades}

, two pair aces and deuces with a bad low. Pescatori showed {2-Diamonds}

{2-Diamonds}

{4-Diamonds}

{6-Clubs}

{K-Clubs}

for a better low. He nailed an eight-high straight to go along with it when the river fell {7-Spades}

{7-Spades}

. That was enough to end Brunson's day.
