Seat 7: Justin Bonomo, 32, Washington D.C., United States - 2,695,000
Widely known as "ZeeJustin" in the online poker waters, Justin Bonomo started his career as a sit-and-go grinder. The 32-year-old American pro has been around for well over a decade. His live tournament career took off here in The Bahamas all the way back in 2005 at the second ever PokerStars Caribbean Adventure. Bonomo picked up $15,600 for a 30th place in the Main Event, reporting his first live tournament cash.
He's added more than $18 million since then, becoming one of the most prolific players in the world. While this will be his first notch from the PCA $100k Super High Roller, Bonomo has already lifted a trophy in a tournament of the same weight class. He scooped the EPT8 Grand FInal €100k Super High Roller for €1,640,000, the largest prize of his career.
Bonomo has recently been in great form. He took down two $25k high rollers last month at WPT Five Diamond. With 41 six-figure cashes to his name in addition to two seven-figure scores, Bonomo is certainly at home in the high rollers fields.
