Bonomo Busts Collopy; Rakes Massive Pot

Justin Bonomo opened the action with a raise to 425 from the cutoff. The player in the button called and Jim Collopy raised to 2,000 from the big blind. Bonomo called and the button mucked, leaving the two heads up to the flop.

The dealer spread out a flop of {J-Clubs}{2-Spades}{4-Clubs} and Collopy continued with a bet of 2,800. Bonomo called and the {5-Spades} came on the turn. Collopy upped the betting about to 6,700 and Bonomo thought for about thirty seconds before calling once again.

The river was the {9-Hearts} and Collopy sat thinking for a bit before stacking up all of his chips and putting them in the middle. Bonomo wasted no time putting all of his money in the middle as well.

Collopy tabled {K-Diamonds}{K-Spades} triumphantly but was at a loss for words when Bonomo showed {J-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds} for two pair. Collopy shot away from the table when he saw that he was beat and quickly made his way to the rail after that.

Bonomo, on the other hand, is sitting pretty with a stack of 61,000.
