Esfandiari Crippled by Bonomo

From the cutoff, Antonio Esfandiari opened the pot with a raise to 8,000. Isaac Baron made the call from the button before Justin Bonomo three-bet to 29,000 from the small blind.

Esfandiari thought for a minute and asked Bonomo for a count of his chips. He had 145,000 to start the hand, about 20,000 more than Esfandiari and then he announced that he was all in. Baron quickly folded and Bonomo made the call.

Esfandiari: {a-Clubs}{6-Spades}
Bonomo: {9-Diamonds}{9-Clubs}

The board ran out {8-Diamonds}{k-Spades}{6-Clubs}{10-Diamonds}{q-Clubs} and Bonomo's pair of nine's held on for the win. He now has 295,000. Esfandiari has since doubled back up to 40,000.
