Bonomo Wins Championship Circuit Title
Justin Bonomo is a young upcoming pro with lots of strong poker knowledge and great skills to back him up. It is no surprise that he took down the WSOPC event at Caesars in Las Vegas. After three days of intense play, sixteen players returned to compete for the first place prize that included a championship title, Main Event seat, WSOPC championship ring, and the $237,692 in prize money. After an hour and a half, they were down to the final table. After some tough play at the final table, Dwyte Pilgrime went out 6th. Matt Graham went out 5th, and Men “The Master” Nguyen finished 3rd place behind the two younger pros. After four hours of final table play, it was heads up between Justin Bonomo and Michael “The Grinder” Mizrachi.
The battle between Mizrachi and Bonomo featured a lot of back and forth action. The play was intense as each player won and lost the lead. Bonomo finally took a chance with A 8 to double through Mizrachi’s A 6. This was detrimental to Mizrachi’s chip stack, so he made a move with bottom pair and a gutshot. Bonomo called his all in with top pair and a gutshot of his own. After a strong match between the two Bonomo would take it down, and Mizrachi took hope a respectable 2nd place prize of $143,512.
