Event 1: 2nd Place - Wach

$500 + $60 Big Stack NLH (Re-Entry)

Dan Wach (Boonton, NJ) 
$235,627

Blinds 500k/1 million/100k ante 

Dan Wach didn't win the premiere tournament of the Borgata Poker Open, but his performance in this event over the last two years his bind boggling. He finished runner-up for the second straight year.

2013 2nd out of 4,482 Entries
2012 2nd out of 3,705 Entries

He finished behind just two players Maksim Rozenfeld (2013) and Benny Bianco (2012) out of 8,187 total entries (.99975% of the fields) and players on Twitter are recognizing the feat:
Another deep run and his third top three finish, adds to his success over the last year which includes a third place finish in June's Borgata Summer Poker Open.

2012 Borgata Poker Open (Event 1) $200,793

This year's elimination comes with Wach holding pocket Kings against Rozenfeld's 7♠ 4♠. All the chips are in on the flop with Rozenfeld on a flush draw, but ends up runner-runner for two pairs.
