Todd has won a bracelet in Omaha High Low at the 2005 World Series of Poker, making the Brunsons the first father-son combination to each win bracelets at the World Series.

He competed in the Poker Superstars 2 Grand Final against Johnny "Oriental Express" Chan and will also appear in Poker Superstars 3.

In 2006, he competed in the Poker Superstars 2 quarter-finalists freeroll and took home the $500,000 first prize after defeating Ted Forrest in the final heads-up confrontation.

As of 2006, his total live tournament winnings exceed $1,500,000.
