Brunson Having Problems

A new big stack has emerged in the shape of one Craig Burgess.

It turns out that he raised with pocket queens and Doyle Brunson called to see a {5-Clubs} {8-?} {10-Clubs} flop. Burgess bet the pot, Brunson raised to cover him, and Burgess called. Brunson flipped {8-Clubs} {9-Clubs} for a flush draw, but the turn and river blanked out and Mr. Burgess is up to 280,000.

Brunson, who gave us a sad smile across the table as Mr. Burgess retold the tale of his double up, has had a frankly dreadful Day 3 -- after starting the day as one of the big boys, he's in some serious trouble on just 30,000 now.
