Three in a Row for Brunner

Level 8 : 400/800, 100 ante

While we have yet to catch him in any significant pots Michael Brunner has evidently been playing a few and his stack is reduced a little from his earlier high of 120,000.

However, Brunner has just padded this out a little after taking down three back to back pots with some well-timed aggression.

In the first, there was an early position raise to 1,600 with Brunner coming over the top for 4,000 in total to take down the pot uncontested.

Brunner opened for 3,000 the next hand and found no customers. We were finally treated to a flop the hand after when for a pleasant change of pace Brunner limped from under-the-gun plus one and ended up heads-up versus the big blind.

The player in the big blind checked the {2-Hearts}{j-Spades}{8-Hearts} flop over to Brunner, who checked it back and the {9-Diamonds} hit the turn. After the big blind checked for a second time Brunner took a stab for 2,000 and made it three from three, climbing back up to 112,500.
