I found some highlights from pokerpages:


Bonomo opens for 18k. Safieddine calls from the cutoff and the big blind calls. The flop is K 6 8 . Bonomo bets 20k, and Safieddine calls. The big blind folds. The turn is the A . Bonomo checks. Safieddine bets 35k. Bonomo instantly moves all in and Safieddine calls with A 8. Bonomo shows 6 6 for a set of sixes. The river is an improbable eight, giving Safieddine eights full, busting Bonomo's set. Safieddine doubles up.


15th - Jerry Fahim $11,920
14th - John Gale $11,920
13th - Nick Binger $11,920
12th - Chris Grigorian $14,300


A short stack opens for a raise, Bonomo makes it 40k, and Binger moves in for about 75k total. The short stack folds and Bonomo calls with J J. Binger shows Q Q. However, the tables turn for Bonomo this time, as the flop comes A 8 J. The turn is a T, giving Binger a lot of outs--any nine, king, or queen. The river is another ace and Nick Binger is our 13th place finisher, earning $11,920.

Tehan just discovered who Bonomo is. "You're ZeeJustin? Get out of here," Tehan said. "I'm playing totally different now." Everyone kept asking him how many accounts he plays now and if he got his money back. I think Bonomo was a bit distraught from the questions.

Tehan 660k
Sung 500k
Cajelais 540k
Shorr 320k
Bonomo 400k

Really? That's pretty sick. I mean, I think we all know the kid is good, but it's redic when you come steaming out of the cage like that once you hit 21. It's not like he's playing 8 of these live events a day.
