Todd Brunson Stumbles

[user67765]

Todd Brunson has relocated tables and recently attempted to stamp his authority on his new table, but ran into some resistance. A player in middle position opened preflop with a raise to 400, Brunson made it 900 to go from the cutoff, and his opponent made the call.

They took a flop of {K-Diamonds}{8-Clubs}{5-Diamonds} and it was checked to Brunson, who made a continuation bet of 1,100, which was quickly called.

The turn brought the {A-Clubs} which scared both players to make a check. The river landed the {3-Hearts} and the middle-position player shoved her remaining tower of chips into the middle in one swift motion. It was close to 2,000 but before the dealer could cut it down, Brunson had conceded defeat and tossed his cards into the muck to slip back to around 5,000 in chips.
