Boost for Bonomo as Bubble Looms
Just now Ali Sarkeshik leaned over to Justin Bonomo, sitting on his right, and eyeing his short stack said "You gotta win a hand." He was alluding to the fact that they are now only a few spots from the money, but Bonomo's stack wasn't healthy enough to withstand a few more rounds without picking up some chips.
Doug Booth had just been eliminated in 36th — meaning they are five from the cash — when Calvin Anderson raised from the cutoff and Bonomo called from the small blind. Bonomo took two cards and Anderson three, then Bonomo bet, Anderson raised, and Bonomo called. Both took one on the second draw and then both checked.
On the last draw both took one card again, and Bonomo bet all in with his last 2,600. Anderson called, and Bonomo tabled . Anderson flashed his cards — showing he'd made an — and Bonomo survived.
