Level 13 : Limits 6,000/12,000, 0 ante

Todd Brunson raised in the hijack and Michael Moncek three-bet in the cutoff. Andrew Yeh called in the small blind, as did Brunson.

Yeh took two, and Brunson and Moncek one. All three players checked and Yeh drew two more. Brunson stood pat, and Moncek took one. Brunson then bet, and only Yeh called.

Yeh took one and Brunson stood pat. Both players checked, and Brunson showed 9x6x5x4x2x to win the pot.

"You're at a table of non-Asians," Mike Thorpe, as usual wandering around from another table, said to Yeh.

"I'm part-Asian," Brunson said.

"You are not Asian. You're a redneck from Texas," Thorpe told him.
