Justin Bonomo raised on the button to 27,000 and Nick Petrangelo called in the big blind.

The flop was {10-Hearts}{6-Diamonds}{4-Hearts} and both players checked to see the {7-Hearts} come on the turn. There, Petrangelo led out for 24,000. Bonomo raised to 74,000 and Petrangelo called.

The river was the {2-Spades} and Bonomo moved all in for 321,000. Petrangelo was covered by the amount and he called quickly, comminiting his 248,000. Bonnomo showed down his {7-Diamonds}{7-Clubs} for a set, but Petrangelo was holding {9-Hearts}{8-Diamonds} for a straight and Bonomo would be forced to send over the chips. He was eliminated shortly after.
