Nível 20 : 5,000/10,000, 0 ante

Picking up with the action on the second draw, Eli Elezra and Justin Bonomo each took one card while David Benyamine drew two. All three players checked and repeated the same draw on the final draw. Elezra led into the middle and found a call from Bonomo. Benyamine let his hand go. Bonomo fanned and picked up the pot. This leaves Elezra with just 155,000 in chips.

Soon after, Jason Mercier raised from the cutoff and Bonomo called from the big blind. Both players took two cards on the first draw and Bonomo check-called a bet from Mecier. On the second draw, Bonomo drew two and Mercier one. Bonomo once again check-called. The final draw saw each player pick up one new card. Bonomo came out swinging with a bet and this made Mercier shift in his seat.

A moment passed before Mercier tossed out a call. Bonomo showed once again and Mercier flung his hand into the muck.

"The unbeatable Mr. Bonomo!" chimed in Elezra as Bonomo stacked his new chips. He's now sitting right around 800,000 in chips.
