Event 2: 3rd Place - Pistone

$350 + $50 + 100 NLH Black Chip Bounty

Angelo Pistone (Hicksville, NY)
$15,675

Pistone's tournament ends when he moves all in with K♠ Q♣ , but is up against Dennis Roitman's A♣ K♣ . Pistone doesn't get help from the board and the full-time pro is out in third place.

"I felt I could have won, but the one-outer really hurt," he says, lamenting how Heather Mercer hit the case three on the river to stay alive earlier at the final table. "I was at my highest point (1 million chips), but after that couldn't get any hands."

Pistone says he'll play in as many Borgata events as his bankroll allows and his goal is to play in the televised WPT Championship Event.
