Justin Bonomo took down the $1,500 Six-Handed No-Limit Hold'em event in rather quick fashion inside the Amazon Room today.

He got heads-up with Mike Sowers within the first two hours of play and came back from a more than 4:1 chip deficit to capture the event’s $449,980 first-place prize and coveted gold bracelet.

What started Monday with 1,587 entries was quickly boiled down to just ten players as play began at 1 p.m. But the real speed came in the move from ten players to the final table of six.

Frank Debus dropped out of contention finishing tenth in just the first hand of play when he ran {j-Clubs}{7-Clubs} into Sowers’ {8-Clubs}{8-Diamonds} and couldn’t improve. Todd Anderson, Viet Vo and Sebastian Pauli were sent packing as well and we were down to six.

Sowers brought the chip lead into the final table, but after Daniel Strelitz got it in with {a-Hearts}{k-Spades} against Taylor Paur’s {q-Diamonds}{q-Clubs} and spiked a king on the river of a {8-Hearts}{10-Hearts}{10-Spades}{5-Clubs}{k-Clubs} board, he took the lead.

Sowers grabbed it back, however, spiking a miracle one-outer to bust Niel Mittelman. These two got it all in on a {4-Spades}{7-Hearts}{5-Hearts} flop with Sowers on {9-Clubs}{9-Diamonds} and Mittelman holding {q-Spades}{q-Hearts}. The turn card came the {a-Hearts}, leaving Sowers with just one out. Sure enough, he hit the {9-Spades} on the river and play went four-handed.

Sowers soon rid the table of Lance Harris when Harris put it all in with {j-Clubs}{10-Diamonds} and couldn’t improve against Sowers’ {a-Clubs}{q-Clubs}.

It wasn’t long before Sowers and Strelitz then ended up in a preflop raising war that ended with Strelitz calling a Sowers shove with {q-Clubs}{q-Spades} only to find Sowers on{a-Diamonds}{a-Hearts}. The flop came {a-Clubs}{k-Clubs}{k-Spades} and Strelitz had runner-runner outs to a royal flush or quads, but Sowers held on the {4-Clubs} turn and {9-Clubs} river.

The heads-up battle started slow and Bonomo began battling back from a deep deficit. Within a level, he was even in chips and the hand of the tournament played out.

Bonomo made it 75,000 and Sowers raised it up to 230,000. Bonomo made the call and they were treated to a {j-Clubs}{3-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds} flop. Sowers bet 260,000, Bonomo called and off to the turn they went. Sowers fired again at the {7-Spades}, making it 510,000, but Bonomo would not go away.
The river brought the {4-Spades} and Sowers moved in, only to see Bonomo had hit the river hard, turning {a-Diamonds}{5-Spades} into a wheel. Sowers had flopped two pair with {j-Hearts}{2-Hearts}, but it was not nearly enough and he was left with just 25,000 in chips.

He made it interesting, doubling up countless times over the next 19 hands. On the 20th, Sowers pushed in against Bonomo’s flopped flush and got no help on the turn and river.

Less than one week removed from a heartbreaking second-place finish in the $10,000 Limit 2-7 Triple Draw, Justin Bonomo had earned his first World Series of Poker Bracelet and close to a half million dollars.

Mike Sowers Eliminated in 2nd Place ($278,518)

Hand #161: Justin Bonomo made it 80,000 and Mike Sowers made the call.

They saw a flop of {4-Hearts}{8-Hearts}{7-Hearts}.

Sowers checked and when Bonomo bet 110,000, Sowers moved all in. Bonomo quickly called.

Bonomo: {10-Hearts}{3-Hearts}.

Sowers: {q-Hearts}{10-Clubs}.

A flopped flush for Bonomo, but a draw to a higher flush for Sowers who had managed a few improbable double ups so far this match.

The turn was the {9-Diamonds} and the river was the {8-Spades}. Not this time, and the miraculous return from almost nothing was not going to happen.

Daniel Strelitz 3rd.

Hand #61: Mike Sowers opened for 45,000, Justin Bonomo called from the small blind and Daniel Strelitz reraised, making it 172,000.

Sowers then made it 345,000 and Bonomo folded. Strelitz fired back, making it 750,000. Sowers then pushed all-in and Strelitz called.

It was {A-Diamonds}{A-Hearts} for Sowers and {Q-Spades}{Q-Clubs} for Strelitz.

The flop came {A-Clubs}{K-Clubs}{K-Spades} and Strelitz had runner-runner outs to a royal flush or quads while Sowers had flopped a boat. The {4-Clubs} turn ended all hope for Strelitz and after the {9-Clubs} river was revealed, he said good afternoon.

They saw a flop of {4-Spades}{7-Hearts}{5-Hearts}. Sowers checked, Mittelman made it 175,000 and Sowers moved all in. Mittelman made the call and was the at risk player.

Sowers had {9-Clubs}{9-Diamonds} and was against the {q-Spades}{q-Hearts} of Mittelman.

The turn card was the {a-Hearts} and the river was the {9-Spades}. Sowers spiked the only card in the deck that could win him the pot to cause gasps from the rail and Mittelman was out.

Bonomo folded as did Mittelman. Strelitz thought about it a while and moved all in and Paur called. Paur was at risk all in for 1,830,000

Strelitz showed {a-Hearts}{k-Spades} against the {q-Diamonds}{q-Clubs} of Paur.

The cards ran out {8-Hearts}{10-Hearts}{10-Spades}{5-Clubs}{k-Clubs}, that river king giving Strelitz the better pair. With Paur's elimination, they are down to five players.

The cards came down {6-Hearts}{j-Diamonds}{4-Spades}{3-Diamonds}{2-Hearts}. Mittelman flopped a set to leave Vo drawing super thin, and no miracle appeared to send another player crashing out in the early stages.

Six-Max Set to Crown New Champ

Mike Sowers - Bracelet Hunting
Mike Sowers - Bracelet Hunting

There are just 10 players left from a starting field of 1,587 in Event #11: $1,500 Six-Handed No-Limit Hold'em - smashing the 1,069 who entered this event last year - and today, they are ready to play down to a winner.

Mike Sowers is the chip leader to start today's final day with 1,413,000. Sowers cashed four times at the 2013 WSOP including a ninth-place finish in the $5k six-max event. He also finished sixth in the $10k six-max event in 2011, so it would be fair to say he has form in this event. He’ll be desperate to get his hands on his first bracelet.

Justin Bonomo is second in the counts with 1,294,000. Bonomo has $7,513,864 in live tournament winnings including an impressive 25 cashes at WSOP events. Bonomo is also chasing his first bracelet - having finished runner-up three different times - including just last week in the Event #5: $10,000 Limit 2-7 Triple Draw Lowball Championship.

Behind those two is Taylor Paur who is third in chips with 1,120,000. Paur does have a bracelet to his name, taking down the 2013 $1,000 Event #18 No-Limit Hold'em event, winning $340,260.

Another player to look out for is Heartland Poker Tour founder Todd Anderson, who is currently involved with Nolan Dalla on the TV show Poker Night in America. Anderson returns as the short stack with 222,000.

Germany has emerged as a growing force in world poker over the last few years and the final 10 in this event sees two of them. Sebastian Pauli and Frank Debus are trying to best the other eight U.S. players.

The next player to be eliminated is guaranteed $29,351. The winner will take home $449,980, along with the all-important WSOP gold bracelet.

Play resumes at level 22 with the blinds at 8,000/16,000 with a 2,000 ante.
