As we arrived, the action was already on the turn with Justin Bonomo betting 10,000 to put Neel Murthy all in. The board was {6-Hearts}{7-Hearts}{A-Diamonds} {5-Hearts} and Bonomo acted out of early position. Murthy, who made the final table of the event in Dusk Till Dawn just 2 weeks ago, tanked for a bit and eventually called for his last 6,200 or so.

Neel Murthy{8-Hearts}{8-Clubs}50%

With an open ended straight flush draw, the two eights and some counterfeit outs, Murthy had a lot of cards to root for.

The {K-Clubs} on the river, however, wasn't one of them. Murthy departed silently while Bonomo collected the chips.
