| Jonathan Borenstein (Teaneck, NJ) had success in that same WPT Borgata Poker Open we mentioned earlier with Marshall White. Jonathan finished second in the $350 NLH Almighty Stack event, earning himself $138,000. |
Jonathan Borenstein (Teaneck, NJ) has had problems finding any traction since he entered the field a few levels ago, but just hit the reset button (after doubling back up to the starting stack). The table was approached as Borenstein was heads-up on a Q♣ J♥ 5♥ flop, with his opponent firing out a bet of 3,000. Jonathan collected his remaining chips (11,600), and pushed them across his cards, which got a very quick call from his opponent.
Player X: K♣ Q♥
Borenstein: K♥ 6♥
Turn: 7♠
River: 2♥
Borenstein was drawing just to hearts, as any outs to a king were nullified by the hand he was up against. A black card on the turn would leave Jonathan one street away from re-entering, but the 2 on the river sealed the win. Borenstein is now just below the 30,000 starting stack, which is a more than manageable sixty big blinds.
