Justin Bonomo is eight years removed from Poker Hall of Fame eligibility, and just two players stand between him and being ranked poker’s biggest winner of all time in live tournaments after he took down the 2018 Super High Roller Bowl for $5,000,000 last night. This is the story of the heater of a lifetime, and belonging among poker’s greats.

Here's Adan Owen just minutes after winning his Shootout table yesterday.

He looks pretty pleased with life, as he should, as he is more of a Mixed Games man.

We chatted for a good while after & he told me it was the first time he'd ever won a (big) Shootout table.

I really like the kid, & think he'll be a force in poker for many years to come.

Seems like a really nice lad, and a very good player.
