Bonomo Makes the Right Call to Double Through Adams

Level 3 : 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante
Justin Bonomo

Brandon Adams opened to 4,000 on the button and Justin Bonomo three-bet in the small blind to 18,000. Adams called to see the flop.

The flop was {9-Hearts}{7-Hearts}{8-Diamonds} and Bonomo checked. Adams put out a bet of 18,000 which Bonomo called.

The turn was the {a-Clubs} and Bonomo checked again. Now, Adams moved all in for 186,000, or roughly the 145,000 that Bonomo had in his stack. Bonomo went into the tank, using a time bank. After just a bit, Bonomo called, putting himself at risk.

Brandon Adams: {10-Spades}{8-Spades}
Justin Bonomo: {a-Spades}{10-Hearts}

Adams was caught semi-bluffing with middle pair and an open-ended straight draw, but Bonomo had the same open-ended draw. The river was the {3-Diamonds} and Bonomo would hold on with his pair of aces to take down the pot and double up.
