Third Spade Comes to Bonomo's Rescue
No-Limit Hold'em
Hijack Justin Bonomo opened to 9,000, and Ralph Perry flatted in the cutoff. Ivo Donev, however, squeezed to 28,000 from the big blind. Action stopped at Bonomo, who called after a while. Perry laid his hand down.
The flop was 
, Donev continued for 38,000, and Bonomo took more than a minute to think about his options. Then he announced he was all in, pushing his 175,200 chips toward the middle. Donev called.
Justin Bonomo: 
Ivo Donev: 
The 
turn was a brick, but the 
river saved Bonomo in the tournament. More than that, he scored a huge double-up.
Donev stood up from his seat, saying, "You got me?" in frustration. The dealer and players at the table ensured him that he had Bonomo well covered. Donev returned to his seat, still visibly shocked by the nasty river card.
