  1. Justin Bonomo, after a strong start to the day, just busted in 11th place, running his huge stack and pair of kings into Isaac Haxton's AA.

    lol, isaac is such a rack
  2. def a cooler, unlucky for ZJ
  3. I can't believe he didn't fold preflop.
  4. tough way to lose, im interested to see how the hand went down, but anyone who ever wins in a tournament is going to be a cardrack.
  5. yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay
  6. justin raised to 40k, got reraised to 120k, justin reraises to 400k, then issac pushes, justin goes to the tank, and then calls.
  7. thats a tough hand to get away from and just got really unlucky that he ran his KK into AA. i am sure most if not all of us would have done the same thing. GG to Zee anyways. this dude is a monster and am sure there will be many more tourneys this year that he'll do well.
  8. I figure you're being sarcastic but actually you might be able to fold kk here. Well at first I thought so.

    You have two big chip stacks over 100bbs each. Very tough fold but possible.

    However...

    11 players left this must be shorthanded so kk even stronger at 5-6 man table. Plus it may look like chipleader is bullying the final table bubble. And of course previous hands with chipleader are major part of it. Finally, how the pot developed preflop could determine whether or not you can get out.

    Personally though given it was shorthanded near final table bubble I don't think you can fold this even with 100bs left. If there were 18-20 players left I think you can make an arguement for folding but still very tough.
  9. I'm sure he wasn't very impressed with haxtons play, and figured this was a damn good opportunity to cripple him and assure himself a deep finish. He probably knew he was beat, but laying down KK preflop when you're getting decent oddsis awfullly difficult - especially shorthanded against a player who very well coule be bullying him off the hand with something like two 8's. Gotta figure Zee is gonna get there sometime soon.
     
  10. that's a fold and I bet justin knew it.
  11. isaac had 4 mil to ZJ's 2 mil so it would not have crippled him.
  12. At this stage of the tourney, I would imagine that the winner of this hand will win the tourney so he took the 70%er and lost with it again. I think I would have done the same thing.

    Another nice finish for Zee, he is on his way to Player of the year.
