Justin Bonomo Eliminated in 2nd Place ($117,305)
With the elimination of David Bach in 3rd place, Justin Bonomo took a 2:1 chip lead into heads-up play with 1,605,000 to Leonard Martin’s 750,000. Martin was slowly able to chip up to even and then steal the chip lead for himself towards the end of Level 27, and after slipping back down a bit in Level 28, he pulled way out in front after winning a big pot with an 8 – 7 low against Bonomo’s 10 – 9 low. That hand put Martin at almost 2 million, leaving Bonomo with just about 400,000.
