Brunson Stacks Zarlenga
Level 20
: Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante
Jason Zarlenga had taken a tumble and was down to his last 150,000 chips. He was already all in from the big blind and covered by Todd Brunson who was in the hijack.
Jason Zarlenga: A♥J♠
Todd Brunson: K♥10♥
Brunson was behind but flopped well as the 10♠9♦9♠ gave him two pair. Zarlenga had some outs with the backdoor flush and straight draw, and the 6♠ turn brought him in another spade.
It all ended on the 10♣ river which saw Brunson end with a boat, and Zarlenga was left to leave the tournament area having been eliminated with around 490 players remaining, taking home $32,500.
