Big Slick for Bonomo

Level 7 : 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante

Justin Bonomo opened to 9,000 from under the gun and was called by Christoph Vogelsang in the small blind. The flop fell {a-Clubs}{q-Hearts}{4-Diamonds} and Vogelsang check-called a bet of 20,000 from Bonomo.

The turn brought the {7-Diamonds} and both players checked to the {9-Diamonds} on the river. Vogelsang checked again and Bonomo bet 95,000. Vogelsang revealed his face from his sweater to think about his decision and eventually called. Bonomo tabled {a-Hearts}{k-Hearts} and Vogelsang's cards went to the muck.

Bonomo is on his second bullet after just hitting the registration desk along with Cary Katz.

Kurganov to the Regsitration Desk

Level 6 : 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante

The action folded to Dominik Nitsche on the button who made it 9,000 to go. Igor Kurganov three-bet to 28,500 in the small blind and Nitsche called to see a flop of {j-Diamonds}{6-Spades}{5-Clubs}. Kurganov continued for 21,000 and Nitsche quickly called.

The turn brought the {a-Clubs} and Kurganov bet 81,500. Nitsche moved all in and Kurganov called off his last 10,000 chips. Nitsche turned over {j-Clubs}{9-Clubs} for a pair and flush draw but Kurganov had the lead with {a-Diamonds}{k-Diamonds}. However, the river was the {4-Clubs} giving Nitsche a flush and Kurganov walked to the registration desk to re-enter.

Sam Greenwood also just took a seat after capturing the title in the $100,000 Super High Roller moments ago.

Eibinger Slows Down Foxen

Level 5 : 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante

Matthias Eibinger raised to 6,000 in the cutoff and was called by Nick Petrangelo on the button and Alex Foxen in the big blind. The flop came {q-Hearts}{j-Hearts}{9-Diamonds} and the action checked around to the {a-Diamonds} on the turn.

Foxen led out for 14,500 and Eibinger called while Petrangelo stepped aside. The river brought the {k-Diamonds} and both players quickly knuckled the table. Foxen turned over {q-Spades}{9-Clubs} for two pair but Eibinger held {k-Hearts}{q-Diamonds} for a bigger two pair.

O'Dwyer First to Hit the Rail

Level 4 : 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante

On a completed board of {a-Diamonds}{10-Spades}{5-Clubs}{2-Spades}{k-Diamonds}, Alex Foxen checked from the big blind and Steve O'Dwyer shipped all in for 44,000 in the hijack. Foxen asked for a count with around 50,000 already in the pot and then made the call. O'Dwyer turned over {q-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds} and Foxen showed {a-Hearts}{9-Diamonds} to eliminate O'Dwyer on his first bullet.
