Bonim Gets a Piece of Bonomo

Level 15 : 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante

Eric Bonim limped in from early position and Justin Bonomo raised to 11,000 on the button. The blinds folded and Bonim called to see a flop of {a-Diamonds}{7-Hearts}{4-Hearts}. Bonim check-called a bet of 7,000 from Bonomo and the {7-Diamonds} paired the board on the turn.

Both players checked to the {2-Spades} on the river and Bonim led out for 29,000. Bonomo pushed in a call and Bonim turned over {7-Spades}{5-Spades} for trip sevens and the winning hand.

Kristen Bicknell
Kristen Bicknell

The board read {q-Spades}{4-Diamonds}{7-Spades} and action checked to Kristen Bicknell who bet 7,500 from under the gun into a pot around 18,000. Ryan Olisar called from the small blind and the turn fell the {5-Hearts}.

Both players checked and the {j-Spades} landed on the river. Olisar led for 13,500 and Bicknell thought for a few moments before she jacked it up to 45,000. Olisar made the call and Bicknell then tabled {10-Spades}{8-Spades} for a rivered flush.

Top Two for Karmatckii

Level 15 : 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante

With around 25,000 in the pot and the board reading {k-Clubs}{10-Clubs}{9-Clubs}, the action was checked to Asi Moshe who bet 16,000. Arsenii Karmatckii called from the big blind and the {3-Diamonds} landed on the turn.

Karmatckii checked again and Moshe tossed in another bet of 44,000. Karmatckii still called and the innocent {2-Diamonds} completed the board. Both players knuckled the table and Karmatckii tabled {k-Diamonds}{10-Hearts} for two pair to rake in the pot.

Schindler Making a Run

Level 15 : 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante
Jake Schindler
Jake Schindler

Earlier in the day, Jake Schindler had fallen below starting stack but has since worked his way back into contention. On a board reading {k-Spades}{4-Spades}{4-Hearts}{j-Hearts}{5-Hearts}, the big blind checked to Schindler who tossed in a bet of 27,000. His opponent called and Schindler flipped over {a-Hearts}{q-Hearts} for a flush which was good enough to beat his opponent's {k-Clubs}{8-Diamonds}.

Schindler raked in the pot and is closing in on the 200,000 chip mark now. The money bubble is on the horizon, just four eliminations away, and Schindler has put himself in a great position to make the money after bubbling the $100,000 High Roller earlier this series.

Bicknell Eliminates Parry on the Bubble

Level 16 : 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante
Kristen Bicknell
Kristen Bicknell

Matthew Parry was under the gun and shoved all in for 67,000. The action folded around to Kristen Bicknell in the big blind who quickly made the call. The hands were held face down until the action at all of the other tables was complete and when they were tabled, Parry was in bad shape.

Kristen Bicknell: {a-Hearts}{a-Clubs}
Matthew Parry: {a-Diamonds}{j-Spades}

The flop came {q-Hearts}{7-Spades}{7-Hearts} and Bicknell held a commanding lead with her two pair. The {6-Diamonds} on the turn left Parry drawing dead to the {j-Diamonds} on the river. Parry quickly exited the tournament on the money bubble and the remaining 78 players are all guaranteed $7,860.
