Loni Harwood

SHRP Team member Loni Harwood moved all in for about 1,600,000 on the button, and Jason Mercier re-shoved for 2,345,000 in the small blind. Justin Bonomo woke up with a monster in the big blind, and he called both shoves, putting both opponents at risk with a chance to win the tournament right there.

Harwood: KhJc
Mercier: TsTc
Bonomo: QhQc

The 3c2d2h flop changed nothing, but the Kc on the turn gave Harwood a big lead with one card to come. She was suddenly looking down the barrel of a triple-up and a heads-up match against Justin Bonomo, but her lead would not hold.

The river was the Td, and Mercier made a set of tens to scoop the big pot. He more than doubled up, eliminating Harwood in third place in the process.

Mercier and Bonomo are now heads-up for the High Roller title, and they’ve taken their 20-minute break a few minutes prior to the end of the level.

Jason Mercier – 6,410,000 (80 bb)
Justin Bonomo – 5,190,000 (65 bb)
Loni Harwood – Eliminated in 3rd place ($348,000)
