Brunson Sucks Out In Front Of Cameras

Todd Brunson
Todd Brunson

We came to Todd Brunson's table after hearing those magical words "All in and a call." A player with about 35,000 left was all in with {k-Clubs}{k-Diamonds} against the {q-Spades}{q-Clubs} of Brunson. We waited for what had to be about three minutes for the ESPN cameras to show up before they dealt the board, but finally they showed up and the cards were burned and turned.

The flop came down {6-Hearts}{4-Spades}{a-Spades} to give Brunson no help, the turn was the {3-Spades} though to give him a flush draw, and the river came {7-Spades} to give Brunson the flush and the victory. The all in player didn't seem too upset though as he wished everyone luck and hit the rail graciously.
