Shamus

In less than three years since turning 21, Justin “ZeeJustin” Bonomo has amassed over $1.8 million in tournament winnings. Bonomo has cashed seven times at World Poker Tour events, and has five WSOP cashes in the two years he has played. More recently, Bonomo won the $5,000 WSOP-Circuit Championship Event at Caesars Place in April, earning $227,692 for doing so.

This is Bonomo’s third WSOP, and already he has had a couple of near-misses in his quest to earn his first WSOP gold bracelet. In 2007, Bonomo finished fourth in the $2,000 No-Limit Hold’em Event eventually won by William Durkee, earning $156,040. And last summer at the 2008 WSOP, Bonomo came even closer, finishing runner-up to Erick Lindgren in the $5,000 buy-in Mixed Hold’em (No-Limit/Limit) Event, winning $230,159 for doing so.

Bonomo regularly shares his poker knowledge with the world in articles for Bluff Magazine and on his podcast, All Strategy, which he co-hosts with Daniel Negreanu and Scott Huff.
