According to PokerNews, Todd Brunson (pictured) took $5 million off billionaire Andy Beal over the weekend. The game was $50,000/$100,000 Heads-Up Limit Hold’em inside Bobby’s Room at the Bellagio in Las Vegas. PokerNews explained, “Each bought in for $5 million and when all was said and done, Brunson held all the chips.”

Poker pro Kyle Loman was on-hand for the action, although shut out of the room itself, and reported via Twitter on Friday and Saturday. He ended with, “Thanks everyone for the love and follows about the HU match last night. I play for a living and am still a super fan. So fun 4 me to see it.”

Todd Brunson’s father, Doyle Brunson, was in attendance for part of the heads-up session, which began with 20 people in Bobby’s Room. The younger Brunson was up $7 million to $3 million early on before Beal rebounded, according to Loman. However, Brunson went back on the offensive, with Loman Tweeting, “Todd: 7 Beal: 3. There are only 3 people in Bobby’s Room now: Todd, Beal, and the dealer.”

Beal battled back to even once more before the tide shifted permanently in favor of Brunson. Loman Tweeted when all was said and done:

Beal has a history against both Brunsons, as the two were part of the famed “Corporation” that went toe-to-toe with the billionaire about 10 years ago. PokerNews explained, “Despite winning a massive $11.7 pot on May 13, 2004, Beal ended up quitting the game, only to return in February 2006 for more action. He quickly lost $3.3 million; went on a three-day, $13.6 million upswing; and then lost $16.6 million to Ivey in a separate three-day match. It was at that point Beal claimed he was done with poker.”
