Justin the Player and Person

Bonomo, the poker professional who won the Short Deck Main Event in famous Triton Series held in London, recently shared his plans to reduce the time he dedicates to poker games. Justin Bonomo recently lost his leadership in the list of the best offline tournament players of all time to Brin Kenny, but he added $3.25 million to his winnings.

Justin won hundreds of thousands of dollars before the age of 21. All the wins are well documented as well. While he may not be the best online poker player he is famous in the online community. Unfortunately Justin is famous for things other than his great poker play. There are some events people wish they could take back and Justin has a few he isn’t proud of.

Justin has since gone down the right path and even recently joined Team Bodog. (he quit the team in the beginning of 2010)

Just Who is Justin Bonomo?

Justin Bonomo started in the card games scenario by playing a game called Magic where he traveled around the world playing against players much older than him. Justin was born in 1985 and began playing poker when he was 16. He mostly played .5/1 games and dared to go bigger but usually lost. At the age of 18 he began to take the game much more seriously by reading books and visiting poker strategy forums.

He began his online poker quest at Party Poker where he quickly built a bankroll of $10,000 from about $200. He then built his bankroll even more by playing multiple tables at Party Poker’s $200 Sit n Go’s. By the age of 21 Justin was the youngest player to ever make it to a final table on the World Poker Tour which just so happened to be aired on Television. Besides poker Justins passions in life are music. He frequents alternative rock concerts and has been to over 100 of them.

How He Makes Money

Justin is known for his canning ability to dominate Sit N Go poker at Party Poker where he used to have an account. We’ll get into the “used to” part in a minute. He is known at many forums as the 12 tabler. His normal game is playing eight $200+15 Sit n Go tables at a time. During his peak he visits the $1,000 Sit n Go’s and plays 8 at a time. He regularly tracks his stats and averages $40 profit per table he plays when at the $200 tables. He’s stated that he can make about $400 an hour playing these smaller tournaments.

The Cheating Scandal

It is best to explain the scenario in full to get a complete understanding of what happened to Justin before drawing any conclusions. Justin plays a lot of multitable tournaments at Party Poker and Poker Stars. During this period of time a guy named Josh Field aka JJProdigy and ABlackcar was caught for multi-table cheating at Party Poker. He was doing so by exploiting a bug in Party Poker’s software. By clicking the Party Poker icon rapidly it allowed players to open multiple accounts at once.

This brought to light a bunch of other cheaters and Justin Bonomo was one of them. It turns out Justin had multiple accounts and was entering multi-table tournaments at both Party Poker and Poker Stars. During this raid by Party Poker they proved that Justin was a cheater and confiscated $100,000 from his account. The amount was just about all the money he had won from the Big Sunday $600+40 Party Poker tournament the week before. Poker Stars investigated his account as well but found his winnings were legit in the Big Sunday tournament where he won $137,000.

The Apology

Justin has publicly apologized for what he did. He has stated on his website how wrong it was but he still does feel Party Poker over reacted to the whole situation. Many of his followers believe the entire situation was blown out of proportion while some are outraged about what he did.
