Tony Dunst

The robe thing didn’t last long for Tony Dunst. In one of the first hands in the new level, Frank Bonacci opened to 1,300 under the gun, and Dunst three-bet shoved for just less than 10,000 on the button. When the blinds folded, Bonacci quickly called to put Dunst at risk.

Bonacci: QcQh
Dunst: 8s8h

The Qs9s6s flop gave Bonacci an even bigger lead with a set of queens, but Dunst picked up a flush draw and the potential for a backdoor straight, too. The 9h turn slammed the door on all of those outs, though, giving Bonacci the unbeatable queens full.

Dunst was drawing dead to the Kc river, and he was eliminated.

Frank Bonacci – 24,000 (40 bb)
Tony Dunst – Eliminated
