Trips For Bonomo

Level 14

Isaac Haxton called with {a-Clubs}{a-Hearts} from the hijack, Justin Bonomo called with {9-Diamonds}{8-Hearts} from the cutoff, and Liang Xu called with {10-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds}.

The flop fell {8-Spades}{8-Diamonds}{7-Spades}, and Bonomo hit trips. Haxton checked, Bonomo bet 50,000, and Liang called.

Haxton thought for thirty seconds before he flicked in the calling chips and the {q-Diamonds} hit the turn.

Laing bet 200,000 after the action checked to him, and both his opponents called.

The {7-Clubs} fell on the river, and they checked to a showdown.

Haxton saw the bad news that his aces had been cracked and Bonomo picked up the pot.

Stephen Chidwick
Stephen Chidwick

Rui Cao limped the hijack with a pair of dimes, David Benefield called behind in the cutoff with {j-Clubs}{9-Spades} and Stephen Chidwick moved all in with {a-Hearts}{8-Hearts}. Cao shoved over the top, Benefield folded and the remaining two tabled their hands.

Stephen Chidwick: {a-Hearts}{8-Hearts}
Rui Cao: {10-Hearts}{10-Clubs}

The dealer spread out {q-Spades}{9-Diamonds}{7-Hearts} and Cao was in an optimal spot to take down Chidwick. A {k-Clubs} turn card had Chidwick in need of a bullet.

The river came down a {9-Hearts} and Cao took down the pot with his dimes, eliminating Chidwick from the tournament in ninth place.

Level 13
Tom Dwan
Tom Dwan

Tom Dwan open-shoved for 630,000 from under the gun, Isaac Haxton called from the cutoff and the two turned over their hands, with Dwan at risk.

Tom Dwan: {q-Hearts}{j-Hearts}
Isaac Haxton: {a-Spades}{10-Clubs}

The dealer fanned out {a-Clubs}{j-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds} on the flop, hitting Haxton harder than Dwan as he now made two pair. A {7-Spades} peeled off on the turn and Dwan needed to hit or he would be eliminated.

An {8-Spades} completed the board, failing to improve Dwan's hand and he was eliminated from the tournament.
