Event 12: 2nd Place - Caruso

$600 + $60 Six-Max No Limit Hold'em (Re-Entry)      

Anthony Caruso (Medford, NJ)

$13,997

Anthony was losing ground gradually and had moved in a few times without getting called.

After shoving from the button again, this time Abe looked him up.

Anthony:  75 suited

Abe:  AQ

Board:  K Q 9 Q J

Despite picking up a flush draw on the turn, the river was no help to Anthony.  He was eliminated in 2nd place, earning $13,997 and missing out on his second Borgata Open Trophy.  

Anthony won his first trophy three years ago during the Summer Open in a Six Max event, so this format seems to work well for him.
