Brunson Cracks Bullets to Stay Alive
Level 13
: Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante
Dan Stavila made it 9,000 to play from early position, only for Todd Brunson, sat in middle position, to three-bet to 27,000. Action folded to Philip Sandlin in the big blind who four-bet all in.
Stavila folded quickly and Brunson made the call for his tournament life.
Todd Brunson: K♥K♣
Philip Sandlin: A♠A♥
Just what Brunson ordered came on the 2♠K♠7♦ flop and he soared into the lead. No ace for Sandlin on the 9♣ turn nor the 10♣ river and Brunson was shipped the pot for a double-up and more.
