Bonkowski Binks to Double

Tyler Bonkowski opened to 26,000 and Kenny Shih three-bet to 80,000. Bonkowski then shipped all in for 449,000 and Shih snap called.

Shih: {A-Spades}{K-Clubs}
Bonkowski: {Q-Hearts}{J-Hearts}

Bonkowski was behind for his tournament life but that changed when he paired his jack on the {J-Diamonds}{7-Clubs}{5-Spades} flop to take the lead. Bonkowski faded an ace or a king on the {4-Diamonds} turn and {5-Diamonds} river to double up while Shih took a hit.
