Brunner Fiips a Coin

Under the gun, PokerStars online qualifier Mike Brunner moved all in for his final 20,400 chips. Action passed all the way around to the small blind where Team PokerStars Pro Leo Fernandez quietly announced a call. When the big blind eventually folded, the cards were on their backsides:

Brunner: {9-Diamonds} {9-Spades}
Fernandez: {A-Spades} {K-Diamonds}

"Come on, don't let me lose two of these in a row," pleaded Brunner. We're not sure what he's talking about, but we did see him run pocket queens into pocket kings early in the day.

In any event, let's run a board to see who runs good in this flip: {3-Clubs} {6-Clubs} {J-Clubs} {2-Hearts} {J-Spades}. It's Brunner's turn to win one, and he clapped his hands together in a celebration of relief.

Brunner - 43,000
Fernandez - 46,000
