We've hit the first pay jump, with the 36th-place finish of Brandon Hong. Sean Bonavita (pictured) opens from under the gun and Hong moves all in from the blinds. Bonavita takes some time to think it over and then calls.
Hong - A♣J♥
Bonavita - A♥Q♥
The board fails to improve either player as it runs out K♥9♠6♣7♥K♦, and Bonavita's queen kicker is good.
Shaun Bonavita - 327,000
Brandon Hong - Eliminated
