Event 17: 2nd Place - Rocha

$1,000 + $90 Six-Max No Limit Hold'em (Re-Entry)

 Alex Rocha (S. Setauket, NY) 
$36,055

Alex Rocha's bid for a second Borgata trophy comes up short when he finishes runner-up to Brian O'Donoghue who wins his third title.

"I'm happy, no regrets," says Rocha who began heads up with a huge chip disadvantage, "I played well."

Rocha's in a coin flip on his final hand with pocket 4s, but O'Donoghue flops a pair with 5 6 and Rocha doesn't hit a set on the turn or river.

Rocha earns $36,055 as runner-up.
