Burr Scoops Bonomo

Level 19 : 3,000/6,000, 0 ante

Melissa Burr opened with a middle positioned raise and Justin Bonomo called from the small blind. The two watched as a {3-Diamonds}{2-Clubs}{J-Diamonds} flop was fanned on the felt. Bonomo checked and Burr continued out with a bet. Bonomo called.

The turn was the {4-Hearts} and Bonomo check-called once again, allowing the {10-Hearts} to finish off the board. Bonomo checked for a third time and Burr cut out one final bet. Bonomo flung out a call.

"Wheel," said Burr, showing {A-Hearts}{A-Clubs}{9-Clubs}{5-Spades}, playing her ace-five for the scoop.

Burr now has about 180,000 while Bonomo has dropped to 178,000.

Merksick Doubles

Level 20 : 4,000/8,000, 0 ante

We found Tony Merksick already all in against Justin Bonomo and Brendan Taylor on a board of {4-Spades}{Q-Spades}{K-Spades}{6-Clubs}. Bonomo was facing a bet in a side pot from Taylor. Bonomo ultimately decided to fold, allowing Taylor to take the side pot and prompting the hands to be turned over.

Merksick: {J-Spades}{3-Hearts}{3-Spades}{2-Hearts}
Taylor: {A-Clubs}{Q-Clubs}{Q-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds}

The board finished with the {10-Diamonds}, putting no low on the table. Merksick scooped the pot playing his jack-trey for a flush. He's still short but found renewed life with about 25,000.

Chino Rheem - 24th Place

All of the money went in on the flop of {8-Clubs}{7-Clubs}{6-Hearts} in a hand between David Williams and Chino Rheem. Williams had {A-Diamonds}{K-Diamonds}{9-Hearts}{2-Hearts} and we missed Rheem's hand, but he failed to finish with the best of it after the turn brought the {4-Hearts} and the river the {Q-Hearts}, giving Williams a flush and the nut low.

Williams scooped the pot and scored the elimination, boosting his stack to 320,000 in chips.
