Good Read

Shamus

A short-stacked player raised from the cutoff, and both blinds called, including Justin Bonomo in the BB. Bonomo brought a book to read here during the first couple of levels, and tucked it away as the dealer dealt the flop.

The flop came {A-Hearts}

{A-Hearts}

{3-Spades}

{2-Diamonds}

. It checked to Bonomo who bet, the CO raised, the SB folded, and Bonomo called.

The turn was the {J-Hearts}

{J-Hearts}

. Bonomo bet again, his opponent raised, Bonomo three-bet, his opponent raised with the last of his chips, and Bonomo called.

Bonomo showed {J-Spades}

{J-Spades}

{J-Diamonds}

for the turned set, while his opponent turned over {A-Diamonds}

{A-Diamonds}

{10-Spades}

. The river was the {5-Hearts}

{5-Hearts}

, and Bonomo had eliminated a player. He is at about 5,500.
