Brunson Spikes the River to Send Out Ziff
Niveau 13
: Blinds 1,000/2,000, 0 ante
No-Limit Hold'em
Todd Brunson raised to 5,000 from under the gun and Clifford Ziff defended his big blind.
The flop came Q♠3♣5♣ and Brunson continued for 10,000. Ziff then raised to 45,000, Brunson moved all in, and Ziff called for his last 65,000.
Clifford Ziff: 5♥3♦
Todd Brunson: A♥A♣
Ziff had hit two pair to outflop the aces of Brunson as the 6♥ fell on the turn. The river, though, came the Q♣ and Ziff's two pair was counterfeited. "Get out of here," he cried out as he shot out of his seat.
Brunson, playing underneath his legendary father's Main Event banner, took the pot and climbed over 400,000, making him the clear chip leader in the room.
