Bonomo Jams Into Kaverman

Level 13 : Blinds 8,000/16,000, 16,000 ante
Justin Bonomo
Justin Bonomo

Jean-Noel Thorel limped the button and folded when Sam Greenwood made it 70,000 to go in the small blind.

Byron Kaverman then raised to 37,000 and Justin Bonomo clicked it back to 130,000 in the small blind. What followed was a four-bet to 250,000 by Kaverman.

"How much do you have behind?" Bonomo asked Kaverman, who simply moved his hands to reveal the chips at his disposal. "Can you break down the 25s?" Bonomo followed up and Kaverman revealed he had 300,000 of those.

Two time banks were used by Bonomo, who then moved all-in and forced an instant fold of Kaverman.
