Thor Wields Minor Hammer

Todd Brunson raised preflop, and Thor Drexel called out of the big blind. Drexel has had some interesting luck with the table draws today -- he started with Phil Ivey to his immediate right, and now has monster stack Jason Mercier sitting there instead.

Anyway, they saw a {3-Spades} {8-Spades} {3-Hearts} flop, and Drexel checked. Brunson bet, Drexel called, and they saw an {A-Clubs} turn. Drexel now bet out 2,300 -- and with the minimum of fuss, Brunson passed.

Brunson Jr - 47,000
Drexel - 52,000
