In this week’s Calling The Clock we bring you up to date with the latest from the Super High Roller Bowl, the World Series of Poker, and a decision from the World Poker Tour that has ruffled a few feathers.
It’s been quite a ride this week, none more so than for Justin Bonomo who is about to have a restless night after winning the Super High Roller Bowl (SHRB) for $5m.
Bonomo defeated fan favourite Daniel Negreanu, heads-up, after four days of action at PokerGO’s studios at ARIA Resort and Casino in Las Vegas.
48-entrants created a prize pool of $14.4m. Negreanu picked up $3m for his runner-up spot, a finish that the Canadian has repeatedly put down to the hard work he has put in off the felt in the previous three months. Jason Koon also made the final table finishing third for $2.1m to add to the $4m he won in the Triton Series Montenegro and the $1m he won in the $100k ARIA High Roller ahead of the SHRB action.
