Event 2 Winner - Roitman

$350 + $50 + 100 NLH Black Chip Bounty

Dennis Roitman (Brooklyn, NY)
$43,359
After swapping the chip lead, Roitman finishes off Jerry Payne to win the title, the trophy and the Blue Shark Optics sunglasses.

Payne open ships 18 big blinds with pocket 5s and Roitman calls with A J. Roitman wins the flip as he secures the biggest live score of his career.

"It's a big accomplishment for me," says the New York bakery owner, "I never make it this deep. Usually I bust out right after the bubble breaks. This is exciting."

Roitman says he used to play a lot on-line, but is now trying to play live as much as he can. He'll shuttle back and forth to his business during the rest of the Borgata Poker Open and with the $43,359 prize money is looking forward into playing in bigger buy-in events.
