Brunson Enjoys Double Crying Time

If anyone witnessed a hand that play out between Todd Brunson, Yaniv Birman and Joseph Cappello, they would enjoy mostly the final scene that unfolded after the river round.

First things first, Cappello led out on fourth and Brunson and Birman both called. Cappello continued on fifth and Brunson raised, but all three remained in the contest for two bets. Brunson bet on sixth again, earning two calls again.

Then he bet on the river and both of his opponents laid their hands down, with the final situation looking as follows:

Todd Brunson: / /
Yaniv Birman: / / - fold
Joseph Cappello: / / - fold

"You deserve this one, Todd, but I had a big draw," Cappello said.

"You had a big draw? I had a big f***ing draw!" Birman replied, showing for a straight flush draw on fifth street. Cappello then countered, opening his flush draw and open-ended draw.

"How is there no club coming? Brick, brick, brick," Birman sighed.

Cappello continued, moaning about his own blank river.

Brunson, in the meantime, silently stacked the newly earned chips with a laugh on his face.

"How could you fade two draws? There were no aces out!" Birman still couldn't believe that he didn't get there. But while Birman and Cappello lost this one, they are both still playing very healthy stacks.
