A Bird in the Hand

Shamus

Todd Brunson raised from the hijack seat, and Dario Minieri called from the big blind. Brunson stood pat, and Minieri drew two cards. Minieri checked, Brunson bet, and Minieri called.

On the second round, Brunson again stood pat and Minieri took one card. Again, Minieri check-called Brunson's bet.

On the third round, Minieri stood pat. Seeing that, Brunson decided to break his hand and drew one card. Both checked.

Minieri showed a 10-8. "A ten?" said Brunson, who looked as though he probably broke a better hand. He mucked.
