Walter Browne is Up, Then Down

Walter Browne was briefly at 645,000, before going to the river against James Richburg on a board of {K-Clubs}{Q-Clubs}{9-Hearts}{5-Clubs}{7-Spades}. Richburg shows {8-Hearts}{6-Spades} for a runner-runner nine-high straight, and Browne stands up in disbelief. He mucks his cards, and is back down to 490,000. Richburg collects the pot calmly and quietly.

A few minutes ago, Browne pointed out that the dealer forgot to move the button, because he was about to be the big blind twice in a row. He explained that the player to his right (Richburg) raised from the small blind on the previous hand. Brown then apologized for forgetting Richburg's name, and Richburg re-introduced himself as "Mason." At the moment, we're not sure if Mason is a nickname or an alias.
