Pescatori Takes Care of Brunson

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} {8-Clubs} {2-Hearts}. Only Pescatori called.

When the turn fell {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} {7-Clubs} {6-Diamonds} {2-Spades}, two pair aces and deuces with a bad low. Pescatori showed {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}. That was enough to end Brunson's day.
