Bonomo Takes the Chip Lead

From early position, Noah Schwartz raised to 38,000. He was called by Philipp Gruissem in middle position, Justin Bonomo on the button and Phil Ivey in the big blind. From there, the dealer ran out the {7-Hearts}{6-Clubs}{2-Hearts} flop and action was checked all the way around to Bonomo. He bet 75,000 and only Gruissem made the call to see the turn.

The {5-Hearts} landed on the turn and Gruissem checked. Bonomo fired a bet of 180,000 and Gruissem gave it up. With that pot, Bonomo moved to over 1.5 million and well into the chip lead.
