Ivey Takes a Chunk from Brunson

In late position, Todd Brunson opened the pot with a raise (as is required in no-limit 2-7 draw) to 600. Phil Ivey popped it from the small blind to 2,600; Brunson made the call.

Ivey stood pat. Brunson drew one card and then quickly mucked his hand after Ivey bet 4,000, claiming that he had paired up. Ivey now has about 26,000 chips. Brunson has about 17,000.

Meanwhile, Mike Matusow hasn't stopped carrying on about a table change to Orange #12. "It's the best table," claimed Matusow. "It's got durr, Layne... what more do you want?"
