Bonavena Doubles Through Vo

Three players made it to the {j-Diamonds}{k-Clubs}{3-Diamonds} flop and all three - Tomer Berda in the small blind, Salvatore Bonavena in the big blind and Viet Vo in the cutoff - checked it.

They all saw an {8-Clubs} on the turn and Berda checked it again. Bonavena bet out, and Vo raised. Berda got out of their way, Bonavena called, and they were heads up to the river.

The river came domwn the {5-Clubs} and Bonavena announced all in for 280,000. Then commenced a really spectacular period of tankage from Vo. At least five or six minutes had passed before another player called the clock. Bonavena remained with his face down on the felt, looking as though he'd fallen asleep. Vo's hand hoverered above the felt with the call until seven seconds, when he finally placed the chips in the middle - and then promptly mucked when Bonavena, suddenly awake, turned over a queen-high flush.

Bonavena doubled to 1.1 million to the delight of the Italian rail. Vo was left with a still very comfortable 1.2 million.
