Championship: 2nd Place - Lydon

$2500 + $200 Championship Deep Stack Double Play NLH

Mike Lydon (Woodside, NY)
$116,787

After starting heads up play even in chips, Mike Lydon eventually wears down against Chalie Hook.

On the final hand, Lydon moves all in for his last 700k with a flush draw against middle pair, but bricks the turn and river.

"I can't be too upset," says Lydon who finishes in second place for $116,787. "I went as far as I could go. I played great for three or four days and was maybe outplayed in the end."

Lydon is a Borgata regular and won a trophy here in the November, 2011.  All 10 of his career live cashes have come at Borgata and this payday eclipses the previous nine combined by $5,000.
