Brobyn Rivers a Boat

Level 3 : 100/200, 200 ante
Robert Brobyn
Robert Brobyn

Robert Brobyn (button) moved in on the river with a board reading {k-Clubs}{7-Spades}{5-Diamonds}{j-Clubs}{5-Clubs} and after some thought, his opponent in Seat 5 called all-in.

Brobyn tabled {7-Hearts}{5-Spades} for fives-full and his opponent mucked, got up, and headed for the exit. That pot took Brobyn's stack up to about 75,000.

A Couple of Borgata Regulars

Level 3 : 100/200, 200 ante
Barry Leventhal & Sean Barringer
Barry Leventhal & Sean Barringer

Barry Leventhal and Sean Barringer are a couple of regulars here at Borgata and they happened to draw adjacent seats in today's flight.

Leventhal has eight Borgata titles, tying him for second-most, and four of those were won in Seniors events.

Barringer finished 1,000th out of 8,569 players at this summer's World Series of Poker Main Event, earning $15,970. He doesn't have a Borgata title yet, but not for lack of trying. He's made five final table appearances which resulted in seventh place or higher finishes.

Cvetkovic Boats Up on Dentale

Level 3 : 100/200, 200 ante
Nenad Cvetkovic
Nenad Cvetkovic

On the river with a board of {a-}{q-}{2-}{3-}{a-}, a barrage of F-bombs started on Table 6.

Mike Dentale had {5-}{4-} and had turned a wheel and the nuts. The river then gave Cvetkovic a full house with his {a-}{q-} and the pot.

"This game f*cks me every time!" said Dentale. "I've got the nuts, and then I get f*cked on the river."

The parade of F-bombs continued for a while, then Dentale settled down and got back to grinding. Got to give him credit for not going broke on the hand.

Renata Colache & Kenny Huynh

Renata Colache (cutoff) and Kenny Huynh (button) were looking at a board of {k-Clubs}{10-Clubs}{7-Diamonds}{10-Spades} and Colache bet 1,200. Huynh moved in, having her covered, sending her into the tank.

She finally decided to call all-in, tabling {j-Diamonds}{10-Hearts} got trip tens. Huynh was drawing to the nut flush and a gutshot for Broadway with {a-Clubs}{j-Clubs}.

The river whiffed all of Huynh's outs and Colache took the pot.

Antimony Arrives

Level 4 : 200/300, 300 ante
Anna Antimony
Anna Antimony

Anna Antimony is making her BFPO debut today and is off to a strong start, more than tripling her starting stack.

She has three Borgata titles, which puts her in a three-way tie for most wins at Borgata by a woman, but she's won a couple of the toughest events. In the 2017 Borgata Poker Open, she won the $1,090 SixMax NLH event and more than $58,000. During last year's Fall Poker Open, she topped a field of 1,073 entrants to win the $450 Almighty Stack NLH event.

Her lifetime earnings are more than $678,000 and that's been accumulated in only about eleven years.
