Bonkowski Chips Up

Over on table 292, the action folded around to Tyler Bonkowski who raised to 8,500 from the hijack position. The player on the button re-raised to 20,000, forcing the blinds out of the way, but Bonkowski called before both players elected to check down the flop of {J-Diamonds}{6-Hearts}{9-Clubs}.

Bonkowski check-called the button's bet of 16,500 on the turn of the {A-Spades} and then both players checked down the river {2-Diamonds} before Bonkowski showed {A-}{Q-} for a pair of aces. That was enough to scoop the pot.
